In This Issue: Two new studies have linked smartphones to plunging birthrates. In the U.S., the iPhone rollout in 2007 coincided with falling fertility rates, and counties with early AT&T coverage saw the sharpest declines. The most pronounced effects were among those ages 15 to 24, accounting for as much as half of the 2007–2011 drop.
In This Issue: After years of relentless decline, South Korea’s fertility rate showed an unexpected increase, rising from a record-low 0.72 children per woman in 2023 to 0.75 in 2024 and 0.80 in 2025. March births surged 19.4% year-over-year to 25,200, the highest March total since 2019.
In This Issue: A new report found abortion drugs are now widely available online in all 50 states, often in violation of federal and state laws.

In This Issue: After temporarily preserving abortion pill access last week, the U.S. Supreme Court has now formally blocked a lower court ruling that would have restored in-person restrictions on mifepristone, keeping nationwide telehealth and mail-order distribution in place while the case proceeds.
In This Issue: Dr. Mehmet Oz has warned that America is facing a fertility crisis. According to Oz, “one in three Americans are under-babied,” meaning they have fewer children than they desire. Speaking at a White House event launching a new government website for expectant mothers, Oz noted the U.S. fertility rate has fallen below 1.5 children per woman.
In This Issue: Justice Samuel Alito temporarily blocked a Fifth Circuit ruling that would have reinstated in-person requirements for obtaining the abortion drug mifepristone, restoring nationwide mail and telemedicine access while litigation continues. The Supreme Court ordered responses from the parties by May 11 as it considers whether unrestricted access to the abortion pill should remain in place.
In This Issue: Germany recorded just 655,000 births in 2025, down from 680,000 the year before, while more than one million deaths produced a record birth deficit of roughly 350,000. The nation’s fertility rate fell to just 1.35 children per woman, marking a fourth straight year of decline.
In This Issue: In an effort to combat its deepening demographic crisis, Japan’s Kochi Prefecture is offering subsidies of up to 20,000 yen (roughly $125) to singles ages 20–39 to use dating and matchmaking services. The move comes as births fell to a record low of 705,809 in 2025, marking a 10th consecutive year of decline.
In This Issue: A new internal review from the U.S. Department of Justice found the Biden administration engaged in “biased enforcement” of the FACE Act, targeting pro-life activists while coordinating with pro-abortion groups. The nearly 900-page report reviewed over 700,000 records and revealed prosecutors sought significantly harsher penalties for pro-lifers—averaging 26.8 months in prison compared to 12.3 months for pro-abortion offenders.
In This Issue: New CDC data show U.S. births declined 1% in 2025 to 3,606,400, with the general fertility rate falling to 53.1 births per 1,000 women. Teen birth rates dropped 7% to a record low of 11.7 per 1,000—down 72% since 2007. Meanwhile, the abortion industry continues to expand, with growing use of abortion pills contributing to fewer births.
