Birth rates increased in every state where abortion bans have been implemented since the overturning of Roe v. Wade, a recent study showed. Among the key findings, researchers found that Latinas experienced the highest growth in the rate of births.
The analysis, conducted by the Institute of Labor Economics, showed that birth rates increased by an average of 2.3 percent in states that implemented abortion bans compared to the those that still have protections in place. Research showed that the impact of the Court's decision was "especially large for Hispanic women," with a birth rate increase of 4.7 percent.
