A Year After the End of Roe V. Wade, How Much Has Really Changed?

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

45% : While more states appear willing to pass laws that protect children later in pregnancy, public opinion has actually shifted over the last year to favor greater access to abortion.
43% : Whether it's ordering pills through the mail, traveling out of state, or any number of other avenues, people who see abortion as their only option - or even just continue to see it as a viable option - will find a way to kill their unborn children.
41% : As such, he argues that the best way to protect the unborn is to "widen our view on what might be a pro-life issue, meaning that it helps human flourishing as opposed to strictly legislation," adding that he longs for the day when abortion is both "unthinkable and unnecessary."
39% : However, until the day that it becomes "unnecessary," there is little we can do to make abortion "unthinkable" to those who are frightened by the prospect of adding a child to their lives.
37% : While there are a number of ways that we can -- and should -- engage with the issue of helping to meet the needs that often lead people to consider abortion, a few basic steps can make a big difference in that struggle.
33% : Currently, thirteen states have what could be described as a total ban on abortion -- though differences exist even within that grouping on how to treat issues related to incest, rape, and the health of the mother.
