But more recent abortion estimates tragically revealed that the further away from the <em>Dobbs<\/em> decision, the slimmer the abortion decreases became.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What Did the Study on Births Post-Dobbs Find?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The U.S. Supreme Court decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women\u2019s Health Organization sparked the most profound transformation of the landscape of abortion access in 50 years,&#8221; the researchers wrote. &#8220;We provide the first estimates of the effects of this decision on fertility using a preregistered synthetic difference-in-differences design applied to newly released provisional natality data for the first half of 2023.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Our primary analysis indicates that in the first six months of 2023, births rose by an average of 2.3 percent in states enforcing total abortion bans compared to a control group of states where abortion rights remained protected, amounting to approximately 32,000 additional annual births resulting from abortion bans,&#8221; the study found. &#8220;These effects vary across demographic groups and tend to be larger for younger women and women of color.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This demographic was described by the New York Times as &#8220;the&#8230; groups that have tended to be more likely to seek abortions,&#8221; which is true, <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/cdc-report-unmarried-women-9-times-abort\/\">as Live Action News has noted<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;These effects also vary substantially across ban states, with much larger effects observed in states that are bordered by other ban states and hence have long travel distances to reach facilities that remain open,&#8221; the study also claimed.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;As of November 1, 2023, 14 states are enforcing bans on abortion in nearly all circumstances, and 23 percent of U.S. women of reproductive age have experienced an increase in driving distance to the nearest abortion facility, from an average of 43 miles one-way before Dobbs to 330 miles at present (Myers et al., 2023). This represents the most profound transformation of the landscape of U.S. abortion access in 50 years,&#8221; the researchers claimed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Distance to Abortion Facility May Impact Births<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The effects of pro-life laws resulting in birth rates increasing were reportedly &#8220;especially large for Hispanic women (4.7 percent) and women aged 20-24 (3.3 percent). The estimated increases were larger in states such as Mississippi (4.4 percent) and Texas (5.1 percent), where the geography of bans renders interstate travel more costly.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>We know that, for decades, <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/abortion-controlling-certain-populations\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">abortion<\/a>\u00a0\u2014 which is\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/washpo-dishonestly-downplay-abortion-eugenics-ties\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">tethered<\/a>\u00a0to eugenics \u2014\u00a0has disproportionately <strong><em>targeted\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/planned-parenthood-falsely-dismisses-abortion-black-genocide-claim\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Black Americans<\/a> and other minorities, so it is no surprise that this study also seems to support what was documented prior to the <em>Roe v. Wade<\/em> Supreme Court ruling: that distance to abortion facility and legality impact a women&#8217;s decision to obtain abortion \u2014 especially minority women.<\/p>\n<p>According to research cited in the documentary film <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=I6XfU8KVkzI\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Maafa21<\/a>:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><em>In 1973, the year abortion was legalized nationwide, Dr. Christopher Tietze produced a study on abortion demographics at the request of the Population Council, a New York-based eugenics organization. In this report, Tietze confirmed previous research showing that, when abortion is illegal, the abortion rate is much higher for white women than for black women, but that this completely reverses whenever abortion is legalized.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><em>At the time he published these findings, Tietze was a consultant to both Planned Parenthood and the National Abortion Federation.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>More recently, as Live Action News <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/number-abortion-facilities-cut-half-since-80s\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">previously<\/a> documented, research <a href=\"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1363\/psrh.12164\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">published in 2020<\/a> confirmed what Big Abortion already knew: \u201cIncreased distance to a provider was associated with a decreased abortion rate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/I6XfU8KVkzI?si=nDKEs6jCtnY-lFaM\" width=\"640\" height=\"355\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Study Bias?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This statement is perhaps one indication of the bias of the study: &#8220;If the past foretells our present, the Dobbs decision will result in increases in unintended births and exacerbate economic inequality. The ability to control fertility has been associated with 40 decades of women\u2019s economic advancement,&#8221; the researchers claimed. &#8220;In turn, access to legal abortion improved women\u2019s health and increased women\u2019s educational attainment, labor force participation, occupation prestige, and earnings.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>But attributing the success of women to abortion (the violent act of killing one&#8217;s own offspring in the womb) is a red herring, as 240 female legal scholars and professionals previously <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/female-scholars-scotus-abortion-no-credit-success\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">pointed out<\/a> in their Amicus <a href=\"https:\/\/www.supremecourt.gov\/DocketPDF\/19\/19-1392\/185366\/20210804180314919_19-1392%20Brief%20of%20240%20Women%20Scholars%20et%20al%20In%20Support%20of%20Petitioners.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">brief<\/a>\u00a0during the <em>Dobbs v.
