I believe that number has swelled to 55 million in 40 years.
So sad.
I once had a pupil write an “essay” “justifing” her having procured an abortion. The topic however, was “The Supreme Court decisions and Abortion”. It was not supposed to be a “reality” confession. Tens of millions of Americans would fight you over abortion, but I was unaware of so many multiple abortions by the same individuals.
