Why this matters

The release of the Guttmacher Institute's Adding It Up 2024 report provides critical data for policymakers, advocates, and funders working to advance reproductive rights and health in the United States. As abortion access and law vary significantly by state, this report offers a comprehensive look at the current landscape, highlighting areas where investment and advocacy are most needed. The data will likely inform efforts to address disparities in reproductive health care, particularly in states with restrictive abortion laws. Advocates can use the report to make the case for increased funding for reproductive health services, including abortion care, and to push for policies that promote equity and access. The report's findings may also be used to support litigation and advocacy efforts aimed at challenging restrictive abortion laws and promoting reproductive autonomy. By examining the report's data and analysis, stakeholders can develop targeted strategies to address the complex and evolving reproductive health care landscape in the US.
