Abortion Rates Rise After Court Ruling Across Nation
A nationwide survey by Planned Parenthood World Population reports a 52 percent rise in legal abortions since the 1973 Supreme Court decision. About 900,000 abortions occurred in 1974 versus 586,000 in 1972, with access uneven by region and income. Only 17 percent of public hospitals serving the poor performed abortions in 1974, while many private clinics served the affluent. The study cites state actions to sidestep the ruling and notes broader access reduced demand in liberalized states.
