Pollster, Commentator & Political Strategist Kellyanne Conway’s firm conducted the poll for Pro-Life Generation’s Students for Life of America (SFLA) & Demetree Institute for Pro-Life Advancement (IPA) with the Clapham Group, examining the views of registered voters.

Findings Identify Common Ground for Helping Families; Concern with Reckless Distribution of Chemical Abortion Pills; And Finds that 30% of Registered Voters are MORE LIKELY to Support Limits an Abortion when There is Help for Families in Crisis

“Forget IVF; Candidates who want to develop common cause with registered voters should champion policies geared to benefit young families — along with health and safety standards for Chemical Abortion Pills,” said Pro-Life Generation CEO Kristan Hawkins. “An agenda that creates opportunity for pregnant and parenting also opens the door for voter support of limits on abortion – the human rights issue of our day.”

WASHINGTON D.C. (09-10-2024) – Pro-Life Generation (PLG) CEO Kristan Hawkins noted that a new poll out today is a roadmap for politicians looking to connect with registered voters on family issues. Kellyanne Conway’s firm, KAConsulting LLC, conducted the poll on behalf of Pro-Life Generation’s Students for Life of America (SFLA) & Demetree Institute for Pro-Life Advancement (IPA) with the Clapham Group. Long-term advocates for supporting the needs of young families, the groups added to a voter survey questions on a number of specific policies that deserve a shout-out as the Presidential debate between former President Trump and current Vice President Kamala Harris takes place. “Abortion radicals ignore the Pro-Life Movement’s network of support for young families and all the laws in Congress today that could help families at a crossroads, but it is harder to ignore what voters want – love and support for pregnant and parenting families,” said Hawkins.

The Executive Report publicly released today observed: “The marriage of support for limits on abortion when combined with more support for young families represents strong common ground for the Pro-Life Movement with the broader culture, as well as a place for political leaders to connect with newly motivated voters. In this poll of voters across the board, 30% said they were MORE LIKELY to support limits on abortion when a safety net is in place. This dovetails with an IPA/SFLA poll earlier this year of registered youth voters, in which 31% said strong social protections would increase their support of abortion limits.”
