WASHINGTON — The Guttmacher Institute today released their estimates for the number of abortions in the
United States in 2024.
The following is a statement from Randall K. O’Bannon, Ph.D., director of Education and Research for National Right to Life:
This isn't the old Guttmacher report that
surveys every clinic and tracks down every abortionist. Guttmacher is still relying a bit too heavily on abortionists who were some of their most reliable sources before Dobbs and giving too much credit to abortion pill sales by "virtual" and online pill promoters.
That said, that they would report a figure similar to last year's indicates that we're not seeing a "growing market," that abortionists are not doing a lot more abortions, whatever the actual number of abortions really is. Other studies do show that lives are being saved in states with pro-life protections, regardless of what Guttmacher is reporting.
Founded in 1968, the National Right to Life Committee (NRLC), the federation of 50 state right-to-life affiliates, is the nation's oldest and largest grassroots pro-life organization. NRLC works through legislation and education to protect innocent human life from abortion, infanticide, assisted suicide, and euthanasia.
