I don't see any change in Florida abortion data. Meanwhile, there was a huge drop in NY and NJ.
Are the people of New York State ignorant enough to elect another secular moron to office.
Elliot or is that Idiot?
1. Abortions have become prohibitively expensive in those states.
2. Both NY and NJ provide anti-pregnancy patches to women on medicaid, which has been partially responsible for reducing abortion rates.
3. There has been an outflow of the traditional underclass from the NYC metro area (including North Jersey) to Pennsylvania and the South, due again to the increased cost of living. They have been replaced by immigrants of various nationalities who haven't been seduced by the abortion culture (yet).
4. White folk in New York are well supplied with birth control, including the morning after pill, meaning you don't see too many white folks with either children or histories of abortion in New York over the past 15 years. NYC and many of its suburbs (outside of the immigrant communities from Latin America, Asia, and the middle east), has become a region of DINKs and SINKs.
