National Right to Life hosted a discussion recently and attributed the rise in abortions exactly to the issue of remote and unregulated access to the abortion pill. Even in states with prolife laws on the books, these pills are shipped directly to women (and even men). NRLC is promoting the APPLE Act to demand informed consent and provider accountability/liability. https://nrlc.org/appleact/
Did the Guttmacher Institute not have data for AL, AR, ID, KY, LA, MO, MS, ND, OK, SD, TN, TX, and WV? All 13 are missing from the chart. That's a fairly big gap for claiming only three states saw lower abortion rates.
I do not like the question regarding whether a person considers themselves pro-choice or pro-life. I would ask them to give me the point when they think it is no longer OK for a woman to have her baby killed, and the point at which they think it should be illegal.
There are a lot of pro-choice people who would be allies in states trying to make abortion legal until birth.
One thing these numbers prove is the scare mongering of the pro-aborts about what would happen if Roe were overturned turned out to be completely false, at least from the point of view of those who support legalized murder. Gee, makes you what other things they may have lied about.
Clearly woman-to-woman ministry is the greatest need in the US Church, but where is it being done in a way that helps young women who’ve taken steps into the anti-child culture to reconsider.
I'm sure there are some who will have a different analysis, which is their right as it is my right to analyze the data and observe the conclusions I see (which further is what my academic training is in).
The passage of Obamacare brought about a sharp decline in the number of unborn lives being lost. Over a million babies saved. The Dobbs decision had hardly any measurable impact in protecting unborn life. The social crudeness that came with the arrival of Donald Trump resulting in an inching up of the number of babies destroyed.

During the Guttmacher timing gap in 2022 the only abortion clinic in ND moved across the river into Minnesota
Except for Missouri, North Dakota, and Arizona, all of those have banned abortion (often with the exceptions for rape, incest, and/or mother's life).
Some of those bans went into place between 2019 and 2024, some took effect immediately upon Dobbs.
So presumably the rates for at least 11 of those 13 decreased, and the chart isn't giving the best picture of reality.
That's what I was wondering, given how pro-life most of the missing states are.
