In a recent Note in the Washington University Law Review, author Ashley Flakus examines when, if at all, it is appropriate for the state to require pregnant women be told about perinatal hospice. (Click here for a general overview perinatal hospice services.) While Flakus is obviously pro-choice, she makes some valid points about abortion, perinatal […]
[Today’s post is by guest blogger Candace Stewart.] Photo credit Lukas from Pexels We don’t actually know how many abortions occur in the United States each year. This may sound strange, as the CDC comes out with abortion totals for the U.S. every year. But state health departments are not required to provide their abortion […]
[Esta publicación está disponible en español aquí.] The Turnaway Study had a much touted statistic about how few women regret their abortions five years later. Google “women regret abortion,” and see the press coverage. All of the following are referencing the Turnaway Study: Much touted stat.

A recent Marist poll took a nuanced look at Americans’ views of abortion. The poll is interesting because it digs further into people’s stances than most polls do. Worth noting: 17% of people who call themselves “pro-life” think abortion should be legal either during the first three months of pregnancy, first six months of pregnancy, […]
[Update December 2021 – We have recreated and added to the below list here: https://secularprolife.org/abortion-rates/] When I tell pro-choice people abortion restrictions decrease abortion rates, one of the most common responses is “They only decrease legal abortions. Women just start getting abortions illegally.” This is a half-truth. The true half is that there will always be […]
[Esta publicación está disponible en español aquí.] In early 2019, I miscarried one of my twins. I had already known how common miscarriage is, and I suspected that when I began talking publicly about my miscarriage, people I’ve known for years would quietly let me know they had also had pregnancy losses. It was bittersweet […]
[Today’s post is by guest blogger Candace Stewart.] One of the first actions the new Biden Administration is expected to take (which has yet to happen as of this writing) is the repeal of the Mexico City Policy. The policy originated under Ronald Reagan and prevents US foreign aid funds for family planning from going […]
A McLaughlin & Associates poll shows that abortion-motivated voters had a significant impact on the November election, National Right to Life News reports: Nationally, 23% of voters said that the abortion issue affected their vote and voted for candidates who oppose abortion. This compares to just 18% who said abortion affected their vote and voted […]
Yesterday, Live Action News published an excellent article by Dr. Michael New entitled “No, Democratic presidents do not cause large declines in the abortion rate.” The article debunks a recent round of memes which purport to show major abortion declines under Democratic presidents compared to Republican presidents — a claim so stale, Snopes rated it false […]
When polls regarding abortion ask Americans about Roe v. Wade, most people say they want the Supreme Court decision upheld. But when the same polls ask people when they think abortion should be legal, most believe there should be more restrictions than Roe v. Wade actually allows. I’ve summarized these contradictory results before. Today I […]
