Due to pro-life laws, South Dakota does only 0.1% of abortions

As of this articlewritten  in 2012,South Dakota had prolife laws including parental notification, bans on public funding of abortion, and pro-life counseling as well as the longest waiting period (three days) of any state.

“Given the legal environment in South Dakota, it’s not surprising that only 6% of South Dakota women who became pregnant in 2008 aborted – three times lower than the national abortion rate of 19%. That’s just 850 abortions in 2008, representing less than .1% of abortions nationally.”
