How to Drive Down Abortion Numbers | Melanie Israel, Heritage Foundation
One of the main reasons that pro-life advocates are in this fight is to see the number of induced abortions decrease. There are a lot of factors that influence those abortion numbers, and in this new post-Dobbs environment, we’re seeing a rapidly shifting landscape that makes it hard to see what it’s going to take to end the practice of intentionally killing preborn children.
Here to offer some clarity is Melanie Israel. Melanie is a Visiting Fellow in the Richard and Helen DeVos Center for Life, Religion, and Family at The Heritage Foundation, where she focuses on policy analysis and development related to life, conscience rights, and religious freedom. Melanie has published op-eds for a variety of media outlets including USA Today, Sacramento Bee, Orlando Sentinel, Des Moines Register, and many more. She has also appeared in numerous media outlets, including EWTN, CBN, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and Politico. Prior to joining The Heritage Foundation, Melanie worked on Capitol Hill, in the office of Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and in the Senate Judiciary Committee. She received a bachelor’s degree in History from the University of Texas.
