As of today, about 930,160 legally induced abortions are provided annually in the U.S. This is a 7% increase from 2017—reversing a long-term decline since the high-point of 1990 (a year that saw a record 1.6 million U.S. abortions). From 1973 (the year of Roe v. Wade) until 1981(when 29.3% of U.S. pregnancies ended in abortion), the numbers of abortions sky-rocketed—and then leveled-off at a 10-year, even-plateau. From 1990 to 2017, there was a slow, steady decline in the abortion rate amongst American women, but since 2017 the abortion rates have notably increased. Total Number of U.S. abortions since Roe v. Wade (1973-Present):

65,000,000 (65 MILLION).

 

Currently, 20.6% of all U.S. pregnancies end in abortion. The states with the highest abortion rates are New Jersey (29.2%) and New York (28.8%). In Washington DC, the rate is 49%!

 

According to Guttmacher’s (a pro-choice NGO that conducts data-research), for the first time since Roe v. Wade, a solid majority of U.S. abortions (54%) are now performed using chemical abortifacients (i.e., an “abortion pill”—a human “pesticide”). This represents a sharp increase since 2004 (9.6%), with the current trend being expected to increase.

 

61% of Americans believe that abortion should be allowed either all, or most of the time. 62% of US abortion clientele claim to have some sort of religious affiliation. The top reason they cite for having an abortion (25%) is not being “ready” to have a child; only 0.5% claim to be rape victims.

 

According to the World Health Organization, the annual number of abortions worldwide is 73 million per year (i.e., 200,000 per day, with 29% of all pregnancies on Planet Earth currently ending in abortion).
