New Poll: Support for Unlimited Abortion Falls to Lowest Levels Since 2019 – lifenews.com
The latest national survey by Pew Research Center reveals the percentage of Americans who believe abortion should be “legal in all cases” fell to its lowest point since 2019 – peaking at 29% after Dobbs in 2022 and dropping 6 points to 23% early this year. Overall, 76% of Americans believe there should be some limits on abortion.
The American Trends Panel survey of more than 8,500 respondents was conducted in January and released this week.
SBA Pro-Life America President Marjorie Dannenfelser commented:
“Outside of the Democratic Party elite, abortion on demand any time for any reason is a repellent, fringe position. The latest national poll shows it’s even less popular now than when then-Virginia Governor Ralph Northam came out for infanticide.
