According to Skop, “studies prove most late abortions occur as nonemergencies and involve healthy babies who can feel the brutal pain of the surgical abortion.”
What do Americans think about abortion right now?
In another Washington Post opinion piece, Marjorie Dannenfelser of Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America and Kellyanne Conway, former counselor to President Donald Trump, pointed to an August Cygnal poll that indicated that 56% of voters support a federal abortion limit of 15 weeks, including a plurality of Democrats.
These numbers appear to be further backed by a May Gallup poll, updated in July, that found that while 34% of Americans believe abortion should be legal under any circumstances, 62% expressed support for at least some form of limitation on abortion. Thirteen percent said abortion should be legal in most cases, 36% under only a few circumstances, and an additional 13% said it should be illegal in all cases.
Carol Tobias, president of National Right to Life, told CNA that Gallup’s results reflect polling numbers they have seen in the past.
“These numbers,” Tobias said, “show that the majority of Americans do not accept the Democrats’ policy of supporting abortion until birth” and that “shows just how out of touch the Democrats are with Americans.”
Abortion is fully banned in 14 states, according to data collected by Planned Parenthood Action Fund. Additionally, 11 other states have varying levels of restrictions ranging from six-week bans, as in Georgia, to 20-week bans, as in Iowa.
