Abortion

Resources to Share

Colorado's push against teen pregnancies describes an extremely effective program to reduce unwanted pregnancies. Framing: it exposes the main frame of Life and Choice being opposites: the best ways to reduce abortions come from increasing, not restricting, choices. Helping poor women, especially young women, control their own bodies is a very effective way to reduce abortions. While making it illegal does not have the same strong correlation -- laws that take away choices are fought and subverted, help that increases choices is welcomed. Action: This is a good link to share from time to time. You might frame it as "Is there any program to reduce abortion that we're fighting about that is as effective as the ones that we just have to pay for?"
