For decades, the Dominican Republic, where abortion has been banned since 1884, has been under tremendous pressure from international abortion networks and the feminist movement to decriminalize abortion and allow it under some circumstance. But despite these well-funded groups and their well-organized campaigns, which had
In This Issue: Recently, The Daily Declaration released a commentary exposing the staggering double standard in public outrage, contrasting massive marches for causes abroad with the deafening silence over the 90,000 unborn babies killed in Australia each year. In Australia, mothers who abort late-term babies can receive more than $4,300 in government payments, with some cases costing taxpayers up to $23,000.
When the Trump administration ended most of USAID’s population control programs, $10 million in abortifacient contraceptives and condoms were in transit to Africa. The drugs and devices, now marooned in a warehouse in Belgium, constitute an acid test of the Trump administration’s commitment to ending
In This Issue: Twenty-two states and the District of Columbia have filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration in an effort to block the defunding of Planned Parenthood. The suit claims this move would devastate state healthcare systems, even though Planned Parenthood has been closing centers and shifting to telehealth for years. At the same time, abortions have reached a record high of over 402,000—up 2.5% from the previous year—while taxpayer funding has soared to $792.2 million, a 13% increase.
Since the 70s, Planned Parenthood has billed itself as an organization devoted to the “comprehensive care” of women’s health, one whose services tens of millions of women rely upon not just for IUDs and abortions, but for everything from prenatal care to breast cancer screenings. Based
In This Issue: New data from the National Center for Health Statistics, a division of the CDC, shows that while the number of U.S. births rose slightly in 2024 to 3.63 million, the overall fertility rate continued to fall—from 54.5 to 53.8 births per 1,000 women aged 15–44. Birth rates dropped across all younger age groups: teens (down 4%), women in their 20s (down 2–3%), and women in their early 30s (down 1%).
America’s dismal birth rates are often blamed on economics. But the cost of bearing and raising children is only part of the reason the American total fertility rate, at 1.6 children per woman, is at historic lows. Equally important in discouraging young people from marrying and
In This Issue: Global fertility continues to slide, with Latin America and the Caribbean—once known for large families—now seeing steep, unexpected drops. Births in the past decade have fallen sharply across the region: Uruguay down 34%, Argentina 32%, Costa Rica 27%, Mexico 24%, Chile and Cuba 21%, Colombia 13%, and Brazil 10%.
Fifty-six years ago this week, Pope Paul VI released an encyclical that shocked the world. Not because it said something new, but because it not only refused to conform, but openly rejected the spirit of the age. Change was sweeping across the world in the
In This Issue: In 2022, nearly one in every three pregnancies (29.7%) in England and Wales ended in abortion—a record high and a sharp increase from 26.5% the year before. This surge follows the 2020 introduction of at-home abortion pills. The total number of abortions reached 247,703, marking a 13% rise from 2021 and a 34% jump since 2012.
