About 32,000 additional babies are being born per year following the Supreme Court’s reversal of Roe v. Wade last year, according to an analysis.

“Our primary analysis indicates that in the first six months of 2023, births rose by an average of 2.3 percent in states enforcing total abortion bans compared to a control group of states where abortion rights remained protected, amounting to approximately 32,000 additional annual births resulting from abortion bans,” three researchers from the Georgia Insitute of Technology and Middlebury College wrote in a report published by the Institute of Labor Economics in Germany on Friday.
