A majority of Americans across the political spectrum support public funding for pro-life pregnancy resource centers, according to a new poll from CRC Research. These are the same clinics that many on the left want shut down.
When survey participants were asked to read statements explaining the services pregnancy centers provide to women—such as prenatal care, housing, clothing and diapers, and empowerment to choose life—overall support rose to 74 percent. This included a jump to 73 percent of Democrats.
After pollsters called attention to the increase in vandalized pregnancy centers and churches as a result of the Supreme Court’s Dobbs v. Jackson decision, 80 percent of survey participants agreed that those involved “should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”
In a statement, Community Outreach Director for Her PLAN Jill Stanek noted the significance of the “over 2,700 pregnancy centers and maternity homes nationwide that offer hope and help to moms and babies.”
“With an average client satisfaction rate of 99%,” Stanek added, “pregnancy centers and maternity homes stand ready to continue their vital, life-affirming work, empowering women to choose life, encouraging them to pursue their dreams, and walking alongside them every step of the way – even years down the road.”
