U.S. Abortion Clinics on the Decline

According to an Operation Rescue survey, reported by Breitbart.com, there was some good news for pre-born babies in 2013.  A record number of surgical abortion clinics in the United States closed their doors.
 
Eighty-seven clinics were closed down in 2013 … bringing the total number to 582 – down 12% year-over-year, and a decrease of 73% from the all-time high back in 1991 (of 2,176 surgical abortion clinics).  The report states that 81 of the 87 that closed in 2013 are permanently gone, and the other six will still perform abortions via the sale of abortion-inducing drugs instead of surgically.
 
Troy Newman, president of Operation Rescue commented, “These numbers show that the pro-life movement is gaining ground and that the abortion industry is collapsing—mostly due to its own negligence and greed, which has been exposed by their unwillingness and inability to comply with even the most rudimentary safety standards.”
 
With near 57-million abortions since the Roe v Wade U.S. Supreme Court decision of 1973, the time has come to put a stop to this ‘American Holocaust’.  The pendulum of public support to stop abortion-on-demand has swung to a pro-life majority.  Now it is incumbent upon the public to vote out elected officials who are pro-choice.  May this election year of 2014 be the ‘sanctity of human life’ year for America!
