In This Issue: New figures from the Department of Health and Social Care show disability-selective abortions in England and Wales rose 2.59% in 2023, with 3,205 unborn children aborted due to diagnosed disabilities. This included 685 abortions for Down syndrome and 300 late-term abortions at 24 weeks or beyond, a 17.19% increase from the previous year.
In This Issue: South Korea’s demographic crisis sparked controversy after Jindo county governor Kim Hee-soo suggested “importing” young women from countries such as Vietnam or Sri Lanka to marry rural Korean men to help raise the birth rate. With fertility at just 0.75—far below replacement—and projections showing the population could fall from 52 million to 26.8 million by 2100, lawmakers are scrambling for solutions.
In This Issue: Among European Union countries, at least 12 still allow the sterilization of women with disabilities without their consent—often while they are minors—despite most having ratified the Istanbul Convention. The practice violates basic human rights and persists under the guise of “care,” driven in part by the belief that disabled women cannot be good mothers.
In This Issue: A new report from the Center for Family and Human Rights details Denmark’s abuse of women through coercive population-control policies. Hundreds of Greenlandic women and girls were forcibly sterilized through IUD insertion and hormonal injections, with cases spanning from the 1960s into the 1990s. Victims suffered lasting injuries and infertility.
In This Issue: The Trump administration announced it is ending all NIH funding for research using tissue from aborted babies, effective immediately. The policy applies across all NIH grants and programs, expanding on Trump’s first-term ban on intramural fetal tissue research. NIH Director Jay Bhattacharya said ethical alternatives now make such research unnecessary.
In This Issue: Taiwan has broken the record for world’s lowest birth rate, according to newly released government data. Births fell for the 10th consecutive year, with just 107,812 newborns in 2025, a 20% drop from 2024. Taiwan’s birth rate stands at 4.62 per 1,000 people, with its total fertility rate estimated at around 0.72, despite recent government subsidies aimed at boosting births.
In This Issue: President Trump sparked backlash from pro-life leaders after urging House Republicans to be “flexible” on the Hyde Amendment, the 1976 provision barring most federal abortion funding, including through Medicaid. The remarks drew swift criticism from pro-life groups and lawmakers who warned that Hyde is a non-negotiable principle.
In This Issue: New research from the Institute for Family Studies finds a widening divide in marriage and childbearing, with liberal young adults increasingly less likely to form families. The analysis shows that even liberal adults report higher happiness when married with children, yet family formation is declining fastest on the Left. The trend has demographic consequences: Since 2000, states that voted for Donald Trump in 2024 have seen their child population rise about 7%, while states that voted for Kamala Harris have seen theirs fall by roughly 7%.
In This Issue: The European Parliament has voted to advance a proposal that would use EU taxpayer funds to pay for abortions abroad for women from countries with pro-life laws, including Poland and Malta. The nonbinding measure passed 358 to 202 and would override national protections by encouraging abortion tourism across member states. The scheme undermines national sovereignty, parental protections, and Europe’s Christian moral heritage.
In This Issue: Northern Ireland recorded a tragic 2,899 abortions from April 2024 to March 2025—the highest ever—marking a 3.7% rise from last year and an 84% increase since 2021. Late-term abortions more than doubled to 154 (a 103% jump), and disability-selective abortions rose 19%. Abortions among girls under 18 have climbed 61% since 2021.
