The latest abortion report compiled by the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) is very significant, both because of the worrisome spike in serious complications from abortion (up 38% in just one year) and because it is the last abortion report in our state.

Because of Proposal 3 and subsequent laws our governor and radical pro-abortion legislators ushered in over the last year, Michigan abortion facilities are no longer required to report statistics. Indeed, they are now unregulated and unlicensed. The substantial increase in abortion complications represented below in conjunction with pro-abortion elected officials simultaneously removing clinic health and safety standards and a judge halting enforcement of informed consent for a woman seeking an abortion illustrates the increased dangers women face. There is no question women who seek an abortion now are at far greater risk than they have been in recent years.

There is no justification for removing abortion reporting, since no woman’s privacy has ever been invaded in 40+ years of abortion reports in Michigan. Yet, moving forward, abortion will become a black box in the state of Michigan.
