""So let me say very simply, I want more babies in the United States of America," Vance said to a cheering crowd."
""We're sending a message that children are important and that they're the future," said Republican state lawmaker and former nurse Evie Brennan."
"According to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, it is 'clinically inaccurate' to describe what can be heard via an ultrasound during very early pregnancy as a heartbeat."
"Imposing a ban on abortion is not going to transform the trajectory of a state's fertility pattern," Bell said."
Vice President J.D. Vance emphasized the need for more babies in the U.S. at the March for Life rally, linking declining birth rates to workforce sustainability. This sentiment is driving new state-level abortion restrictions, such as Wyoming's law banning abortions after a detectable fetal heartbeat. Critics, including medical professionals, argue that the term 'heartbeat' is misleading. Despite these laws, experts like demographer Suzanne Bell suggest that such bans are unlikely to significantly alter fertility trends in states like Wyoming.
