From the Alan Guttmacher Institute:
“It was found that women in states with Medicaid funding for abortion have an abortion rate 3.9 times higher than women who aren’t covered…”

This proves that in states where abortion is not covered by health insurance, there are fewer abortions. Perhaps the extra time that poor women need to get the money together for an abortion allows them to reflect on their situation and change their minds.
