Abortions have increased since 2020 in the majority of states where the practice isn’t banned, even doubling or tripling in certain places, according to new estimates.
Data collected by the Guttmacher Institute, a research organization that supports abortion access, gives the clearest picture to date of where people are seeking abortions in the U.S., more than a year after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade.
“The increase in a state like New Mexico is probably primarily driven by travel from bordering states like Texas. That’s something that we’ve certainly heard anecdotally in the past, and I think the scale of this change bears that out,” Maddow-Zimet said. And in Illinois — which has enacted policies that protect abortion providers and patients who travel to receive abortions there — abortions were up 69%. An estimated 44,000 were performed in the first half of 2023, compared to more than 26,000 in the first half of 2020.
“We strategically decided to open in southern Illinois because of the proximity to so many states that would likely have bans,” Gallegos said. “It’s not unusual for us to have patients from nine different states in one day because of that.”
