Abortions down in 2005

The Alan Guttmacher Institute has a new study claiming there were an estimated 1.2 million abortions performed in the U.S. in 2005. This is a rather dramatic drop from a Guttmacher report in 2006 which estimated there were 1.287 million abortions performed in 2003. There's coverage in the Washington Post and Los Angeles Times, among others.
