Young and Negative on Abortion

More than one-fifth of 1,009 Americans surveyed by Zogby International say they're less in favor of abortion today than they were a decade ago. The youngest people tended to be more opposed to abortion than the baby-boomer generation.

One-third of people ages 18 to 29 said abortion should never be legal. That contrasts with about 23% for those from 30 to 64 years old and about 20% for those over age 65.
