An annual poll released before the March for Life has found that, as in previous years, a majority of Americans support some form of limitations on abortion.
The poll released on Thursday revealed that 67% of Americans support legal limitations on abortion and that 60% believe abortions should be limited at most to the first three months of pregnancy.
Conducted from Jan. 7–9, the poll surveyed 1,387 adults, with each region represented in proportion to its adult population.
Sponsored by the Knights of Columbus every year and conducted by the Marist Poll, the survey also found for the second consecutive year that 83% of Americans support pregnancy resource centers and 82% of respondents said they believed “laws can protect both the mother and her unborn child.”
