After Abortion Ban, Texas Teen Birth Rate Rises
After Abortion Ban, Texas Teen Birth Rate Rises
According to a University of Houston report, the increase reverses a 15-year trend. And unwanted pregnancies will rise, researchers predict.
A 15-year decline in Texas teen birth rates slid to a stop—and converted into a modest increase in 2022, the year after the state Legislature implemented what was the nation’s strongest ban on abortion, according to new report from the University of Houston’s Institute for Research on Women, Gender & Sexuality.

Y'all focusing on them hoping to pump out "poor, uneducated wage slaves" or whatever, but there's a much bigger reason why conservatives want those children to be born.
With foster care conditions being so absolutely abhorrent in its current state, it's very easy for a child to get "lost in the system". Add in the trauma of being a child in that situation, and it is a recipe for disaster. These adults.. want those vulnerable kids.
The party who insist they are doing what they do to """protect the children""".
There's a business in that. And there are folks who want those unwanted children.
That is because REPUBLICANS FUCK KIDS AND THEY FUCK THEM A LOT
Hey look. Someone read between those lines and got it.
And they do it because they think it makes them immortal. They fear death. That dark abyss. Their deeds laid bare, their sins punished.
Today's neglected and unwanted children are tomorrow's prisoners? 🤔
Prisoners, soldiers... The options are endless!
I've heard they yearn for the mines.
well the boys do. Once the brothels are full of young unwanted girls they'll wage a war on prostitution or witches again too. Isnt history fun.
No.
They're future sexual abuse victims.
"Losing" children at the border after separating them from their parents is a very clear indicator of this, as well.
Sorry, I'm pro-choice and left leaning but I think this is a little far fetched.
Sure ok there are folks who want unwanted children but they're an infinitesimal minority. I don't think highly of GOP voters but they're not quite that diabolical.
I'm not talking about the voters. I'm talking about the politicians and people behind the scenes at the top who help to make these policies.
That doesn't make any sense. Politicians want the babies even though voters don't?
Pretty sure republicans got in trouble in poland recently for trying to adopt large groups of white kids.
Republicans represent rich rural fiefdoms and immigrant labor is a major part of that that can't be overlooked.
Why do you think they've rolled back child labor laws recently? This is their last ditch political response to immigrant labor.
unfortunately the ensuing chaos that happens about 10-20 years down the line after these boom events is what eventually sobers them up as the bodies pile up and the children are killed by industries, the state, crime or chaos.
Sorry mate, this honestly sounds like a bit of a crazy rant. Can you link me something about the push kids?
which part?
Sorry, I meant the polish kids
Apparently its a little crazier than I remember, Matt Shea was a washington state politician, the orphans are ukranian:
Sure ok. Clearly that's the work of a lone nutter rather than "republicans".
Sure but I don't think he's an atypical "lone nutter" in eastern washington. He believes a lot of things regular republicans believe and is just acting on them more than most.

Does this apply to infants?
To a degree, but infants are much easier to place.
