Data: Planned Parenthood performs more than 1 in 4 U.S. abortions
The latest data from Planned Parenthood’s annual report shows that they performed 332,278 termination procedures according to their 2009 annual report which spans from mid-2008 to mid-2009. The Guttmacher Institute which was founded as a division of Planned Parenthood reported that there were 1,212,400 total U.S. abortions in 2008 which is their latest data. The U.S. abortion rate is essentially flat over the last few years. This means that Planned Parenthood performs 27.4% (332,278 divided into 1,212,400) of all U.S. abortions.
