Gallup Shows More Americans Pro-Life 5/15/2009 Washington, D.C. — A new Gallup poll shows that 51 percent of Americans identify as “pro-life” and 42 percent “pro-choice.” This is a significant increase from last year when 50 percent considered themselves “pro-choice” and 44 percent “pro-life.”
“This dramatic shift of more people becoming pro-life did not happen in a vacuum,” states Wendy Wright, President of Concerned Women for America. “In the last two decades, ultrasounds have made people aware that abortion kills a baby, and women have been vocal about regretting their abortion. But the most significant development in the last year is that America has the most pro-abortion president in our history. Barack Obama has revealed what ‘pro-choice’ means — taxpayer funded abortions, eliminating common-sense regulations, rescinding protections for doctors and medical providers who decline to participate in abortion. ‘Pro-choice’ means taking away people’s choices — a baby’s right to live, a woman’s right to know the harms of abortion before she undergoes one, taxpayers’ right not to be forced to pay for other people’s abortions, medical providers freedom not to participate in abortions.”
“Ironically, Obama’s radical abortion policies and nominees may have helped make America more pro-life.”
