That statistic is accurate. I’m not sure why forced birthers are so against the truth. The abortion rate is highest among poor women. If conservatives really wanted to reduce abortion numbers you’d be clamoring for affordable healthcare, free birth control, paid maternity leave and comprehensive sex ed in schools. Instead, republicans put policies in place that leave poor women with no choice but to abort. Of course now that abortion will be illegal in half the country, it seems conservatives can’t wait until poor women will be supplying infants for people with money in this country causing trauma to women and children. Absolutely sick. https://www.guttmacher.org/news-release/2017/abortion-common-experience-us-women-despite-dramatic-declines-rates
