In This Issue: The Center for Disease Control and Prevention has released the provisional birth rate data for 2023 and the U.S. was once again in decline. The statistics revealed that a little under 3.6 million babies were born last year, which is 76,000 fewer than the year before. It is also the lowest one-year tally since 1979.
In This Issue: In March, Iowa tabled legislation that would have made it a felony to “cause the death” of an “unborn person.” Iowa is trying to avoid introducing personhood legislation, which recognizes the unborn child as having legal rights and protections. Alabama’s recent Supreme Court decision regarding IVF put personhood legislation in the spotlight for all the states.
In This Issue: Planned Parenthood’s 2022-2023 annual report revealed that the organization provided a total of 392,715 abortions. If the CDC factored child deaths caused by abortion into their “Leading Causes of Death” data, that would make Planned Parenthood-performed abortions the fourth leading cause of death, behind heart disease, cancer, and Covid-19.
In This Issue: New data regarding American fertility may hold a silver lining to the “birth dearth” that the nation is experiencing. As we have highlighted previously, the U.S. fertility rate is below replacement and, in general, continues to trend downward. However, data from 2022 suggests that while Americans are having fewer babies, the babies that are being born are more likely to be born to married parents.
In This Issue: This week, the political network for values celebrated our Ibero-American office’s 20th anniversary on social media, stating the following:
“Congratulations to the Population Research Institute for their 20 years of service in Ibero-America. We join them in the celebration and look forward to continuing to work together to defend life, family, and liberties.”
In This Issue: On March 26th, the Supreme Court began hearing oral arguments for the case that will decide the future of the abortion pill. Since the pandemic, the FDA has loosened restrictions on the abortion drugs mifepristone and misoprostol. According to one expert, “The telehealth policy, which the FDA temporarily implemented during the COVID-19 pandemic before making it permanent, is really ‘what opened the gate’ to the drug’s broader use.” This has directly contributed to the uptick in abortions. Last year, the total number of abortions in the U.S. surpassed 1 million for the first time in over a decade.
On March 6, the Lepanto Institute and the Population Research Institute published a 130-page report summarizing the findings of their joint, year-long investigation into projects that Catholic Relief Services was carrying out in three African countries. Prior to the publication of that report,
In This Issue: In this argument for her audience to have more children, Leah Libresco Sargeant breaks down why increasing your family size is a good thing. The issue goes beyond economics. In Sargeant’s words, saying no to children is a no to hope, need, particularity, and something better than our plans. Her compelling speech describes how children are not just society’s future, but each individual’s connection to the future. Parents are truly lucky to be needed by their children; to love and be loved in return by their children. Children pull parents out of selfishness and give them the opportunity for personal growth. Further, children require parents to grow in magnanimity–greatness of soul. Children may challenge you and change you, but in that, they are blessings, not burdens.
Front Royal, VA – On March 6th the Lepanto Institute and Population Research Institute jointly issued a 130-page report detailing how CRS was directly complicit in the promotion of contraception, masturbation, condom use, and the funding of abortion advocates in Africa. On March 15, after a week
In This Issue: Last week, the Population Research Institute (PRI) and Lepanto Insitute (LI) held a joint press conference to release the results of a year-long investigation of Catholic Relief Services in three African countries. These countries were Cameroon, Lesotho, and Zimbabwe. Our investigator found, and provided, evidence of CRS pushing contraception, abortion education, and graphic sexual education, supporting masturbation, on girls as young as ten.
