AN ESTIMATED 1.3 MILLION ABORTIONS ARE PERFORMED ANNUALLY

An estimated 1.3 million abortions are performed annually or approximately two and a half abortions every minute (Abortion). In all societies, women have sought to terminate pregnancies for many reasons. Republicans and democrats support either the right to live or the right to decide. The debate whether abortion should be made legal continues to divide republicans and democrats long after the U.S. Supreme Court’s 7-2 decision on Roe v. Wade declaring abortion a “fundamental” right (Roe V. Wade). The conflict over abortion that was divided into two camps, Pro-Life and Pro-Choice, sparked different views in conservatives and liberals; supporters of both camps may come together to help in sex education, distribution of birth control, and protection to avoid unwanted pregnancies.

The right of the unborn, supported by the pro-life camp, has its beliefs and consequences. Defined pro-life individuals believe that personhood begins at conception and abortion is immoral
