Excerpt:
Secular Pro-Life regularly shares citations and statistics concerning later abortion, including the many reasons the topic is worth its own discussion. When we bring this up, pro-choice people will often counter with, “Later abortion is only 1% of all abortions performed.”
Of course 1% of approximately one million abortions a year is still an alarmingly large number, but it’s also not clear that the 1% stat is true in the first place.
Even some abortion advocates are questioning this statistic. On X, the abortion rights account RHAvote recently shared:
The claim that “Only 1% of abortions happen after 21wks” is a junk stat based on a misreading of CDC data. And tragically has led to a kind of stigmatizing conventional wisdom that banning later abortion isn’t that bad because it doesn’t affect that many people.
