CWN Editor's Note: The number of abortions in the US fell by 6% in the first two months after the Dobbs decision, according to a survey by the Society for Family Planning.

Because of state restrictions on abortion, which took effect when the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, the survey estimates that 10,000 unborn children were spared. Liberal commentators see this as a tragedy.
