Fact Sheet: Are Pro-Life State Laws Preventing Pregnant Women from Receiving Emergency Care?

Articles highlighting poor quality medical care in pro-life states have raised concerns that state laws are preventing pregnant women from obtaining necessary emergency care. However, all pro-life state laws allow doctors to treat women with pregnancy emergencies, no law requires “imminence” before a doctor can intervene, and every pro-life state permits doctors to treat women suffering from miscarriages or ectopic pregnancies. Doctors who fail to provide patients with necessary emergency treatment therefore may be committing malpractice.

Dobbs and Medical Deserts: Will Pro-Life Laws Drive Away Doctors and Lead to Hospital Closures?

Post-Dobbs, pro-life states’ efforts to protect life have been met with pushback, including widespread claims that the laws are contributing to hospital closures and driving doctors away. A close look at the data shows that these claims are unjustified. Pro-life states continue to train medical students, recruit future doctors, and position themselves for further growth.

Abortion

Fact Sheet: Reasons for Abortion

After the Supreme Court ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, states across the country have enacted laws that limit abortion. Frequently, these laws make exceptions for abortions for certain reasons, such as rape and incest, risk to the mother’s life or health, or a fetal abnormality. This fact sheet documents how common, or uncommon, these various reasons for abortion are.

Fact Sheet: Three Problems with the FDA’s Abortion Drugs Complications Data

The FDA’s abortion drugs complications data is woefully incomplete. From 2020-2022, the six states that report complications by type of procedure reported 1,004 total complications from drug-induced abortions. Meanwhile, the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System data reflects just 17 unduplicated abortion-related adverse events over this same period.

Five Facts About “Life-Limiting” Fetal Conditions

Babies prenatally diagnosed with a life-limiting condition often face discrimination. Some continue to refer to these conditions as “lethal” or “fatal” or “incompatible with life.” In such cases abortion is often offered as the only option to families. The fact is, however, that some of these babies may require very minimal medical support after birth or may benefit and be stabilized for further evaluation with medical interventions routinely performed on babies without lethal labels.

Fact Sheet: A Summary of the CDC’s 2021 Abortion Surveillance Report
