State of Abortion in America One Year After Roe v. Wade Overturned

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

67% : Bad actors in pro-abortion states flout the law and ship pills into pro-life states to mothers to use at home on their own, leaving women and their babies to suffer the consequences alone.
56% : Some women still travel from pro-life states to pro-abortion states to have an abortion.
50% : When it comes to ballot initiatives to protect life or enshrine abortion in state constitutions, the pro-abortion side has had the edge.
48% : Votes on pro-life bills -- even those bills that may not pass both houses or be signed by the president -- expose the radical Left's agenda of abortion-on-demand through all nine months of pregnancy, paid for by the taxpayers.
45% : Every single one represents a unique and irreplaceable person who now has a chance at life, and a woman who wasn't harmed physically or emotionally by abortion.
44% : California, Michigan, and Vermont voted to embed a right to abortion in their state constitutions.
43% : Only when every woman and unborn child is protected from abortion in all 50 states and U.S. territories, will this great human rights fight of our time be over.
42% : Half the states now significantly protect life, including 14 with full nine-month protections from abortion and still more with "heartbeat" laws (laws that ban abortion once a heartbeat can be detected at about six weeks) or laws protecting children after the first trimester.
41% : So, beyond just preventing abortions within their own borders, pro-life states must continue to foster a culture of life more broadly to discourage abortions.
40% : Other states like Minnesota and New Jersey enacted laws specifically protecting unfettered access to abortion through all nine months of pregnancy.
40% : Fighting dangerous abortion pills must be among the highest of pro-life priorities in every single state.
39% : The American people -- who, polling shows, do not support abortion-on-demand, and certainly not through all nine months of pregnancy -- deserve to know where each member stands.
37% : One year ago, on June 24, 2022, the Supreme Court righted a grave wrong by overturning Roe v. Wade, the 1973 Supreme Court decision legalizing abortion throughout the United States.
37% : Compared to the legal landscape under Roe, these life-saving laws now protect tens of thousands of women and unborn children each year from the violence of abortion.
37% : These laws can, for example, stop law enforcement agencies in the pro-abortion state from cooperating with another state or licensing board's investigation being conducted in a pro-life state.
