States for Life
Facts of Life
Americans United for Life released its 2016 “Life List” on Jan. 12. The top 10 pro-life states, based on pro-life legislation initiatives, were, in order of Nos. 1-10, Oklahoma — for the first time — Kansas, Louisiana, Arkansas, Mississippi, Nebraska, Indiana, North Dakota, Missouri and Texas.
And “the states least protective of women and children against abortion-industry abuses” are, according to AUL: Washington (for the seventh time in a row), Vermont, New Jersey, California, Oregon, Nevada, New York, Hawaii, Connecticut and Wyoming.
“The momentum for creating a culture that respects life in the law increases each year,” said Charmaine Yoest, CEO of AUL. “This is a historic time for life. More life-affirming and protective state laws have been enacted since 2010 than in any similar period since Roe v. Wade.”
