Voters said they're more worried about the economy than abortion access, according to one recent survey.
More than 200 abortion clinics could eventually close in 26 states ready to ban or curtail access if the Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade, according to recent research saying the closures would be mostly clustered in the southeast and Midwest.
On the flip side, 60% of the 1,000 survey participants said abortion restrictions would not make a difference in their state’s desirability, while 5% said it would heighten their state’s desirability. It’s an open question whether people would move in or out of a state depending on its abortion laws.
Just over half of the country’s states, 26, appear ready or likely to quickly curtail abortion if Roe is overturned, according to the Guttmacher Institute, a public health think tank which supports abortion access. Of that number, 13 states have so-called “trigger” laws that would automatically ban “all or nearly all” abortions if the Supreme Court strikes down Roe, according to the Guttmacher Institute.
The median self-paid cost for an abortion induced by medication was $568, the researchers said. It was $625 for a first-trimester abortion and $775 for a second-trimester abortion. Polling and consequences if Roe is overturned The question of abortion access is divisive, but past polling shows the majority of Americans support Roe and the abortion access that followed. The question is where abortion laws land on a voter’s priority list.
A slim majority of 51% said there should be one national policy, while 40% said states should determine their own abortion access laws.
