Liberals eulogize closure of infamous late-term abortion clinic while opponents celebrate
THE BLAZE
While some anti-abortion groups were celebratory, others hinted that the closure was at best a symbolic victory. Bradley Pierce, president of the Foundation to Abolish Abortion, told Blaze News, "Whether or not they are forced to close by the laws in any particular state, we can expect more surgical abortion facilities to shut their doors in the coming years. That is largely because of the increasing popularity of abortion pills and other methods of self-induced abortion."
While the number of such facilities is dwindling, Pierce noted that since Roe v. Wade was overturned, abortions have gone up "generally due to the increasing popularity of abortion pills, which have become the primary method of abortion in the United States. Even in conservative states where clinics have closed, women are still ordering and taking abortion pills."
