105 abortion facilities across the United State have shut down since the fall of Roe v. Wade, according to a new report.
Next week, June 24 will be the the third anniversary of the U.S. Supreme Court’s blessed ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, which not only upheld Mississippi’s 15-week abortion ban but overturned Roe and delivered the pro-life cause its most transformative victory since Roe unleashed nationwide abortion-on-demand in 1973, by restoring states’ ability to directly ban abortion.
On June 17, the Associated Press published a report on where abortion “access” stands in this new normal, in which 12 states have banned all or most abortions, with a wide range of lesser abortion restrictions and other pro-life laws given a new lease on life as well.
At the same time, the Trump administration has resumed enforcement of the Hyde Amendment (which forbids most federal funds from directly supporting elective abortions), reinstated the Mexico City Policy (which forbids non-governmental organizations from using taxpayer dollars for elective abortions abroad), cut millions in pro-abortion subsidies through the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), and frozen Title X “family planning” grants to nonprofits it said violated its executive orders on immigration and diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives, including Planned Parenthood affiliates in nine states.
Pro-abortion group “I Need An A,” has tallied 105 abortion centre closures as a result of these policies. At the same time, 34 facilities have either opened for the first time or moved from pro-life states to pro-abortion ones.
