Abortions dropped by about 50 percent in Texas in September after a new law prohibiting most abortions went into effect, according to a new study.
The drop was ascertained (pdf) by the Texas Policy Evaluation Project. The group compared the number of abortions performed at Texas clinics this September (2,164) to the amount in September 2020 (4,313).
