From the newsletter of the New Hampshire Pro-Life Council:


"Pro-abort radicals have long proclaimed the 'right' to abortion should be guaranteed by international law as restricting them leads to high maternal mortality. This is false according to data found in 'The World Mortality Report: 2005' published by the United National Population Division the first of this year. It measures mortality, including maternal and infant mortality, for all the nations of the world. In particular the United States, with almost no restrictions on abortion, has a rate of 17 deaths for every 100,000 births."
