The numbers get even more alarming when you look at the abortion ratio in each group identified by the New York State Department of Health. For every 1,000 live births in the black community, there were 763 abortions. This is a ratio that is 7 times higher than Whites and 2.2 times higher than Hispanics.

Today, Governor Evers signed the Safe Haven Baby Box Bill, an expansion of Wisconsin’s Safe Haven law passed in 2001.

The law signed today expands the Save Haven program to allow fully staffed hospitals and fire and police stations to install ventilated, temperature-controlled “baby boxes” in outside walls so that parents can more easily relinquish their babies anonymously.
