Abortions are on the rise in the United States, despite bans that have taken effect in more than a dozen states since the US Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision that revoked the federal right to abortion in June 2022.
There were more than 1 million abortions in the US in 2023, the highest rate in more than a decade and a 10% jump from 2020, according to a report released Tuesday by the Guttmacher Institute, a research and policy organization focused on sexual and reproductive health that supports abortion rights. The latest trends also suggest that medication abortion is a more common option than ever.
If only someone had warned politicians this would happen…
Oh wait, this was pointed out multiple times and they chose to ignore it.
Moronic pro forced birthers didn’t understand that putting a ridiculously low time limit to decide means women will need to make a decision faster instead of having time to think it over.
Nah.
That isn’t an oversight in their mind. The objective is to ban all forms of abortion. Legally, it’s a form of compromise, but in their view it’s a loophole.
The next crusade is that already limited window.
None of this shit is adequately explained by stupidity.
