To hear it from Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and Democrats, they don’t support abortions up to birth. But a shocking new report shows 137 viable babies 28 weeks or older were killed in abortions in Colorado last year.
Biden and Harris won’t event say a word about it, let alone condemn this horrific figure.
The vast majority of Colorado abortions (98%) occurred in doctors’ offices. Just 0.1% were performed in hospitals. However, the type of facility was not reported for 2% of the abortions. Seventy-three percent of the abortions were performed at eight weeks of gestation or earlier. Twelve percent occurred between nine and 10 weeks of gestation, while 4% were performed between 11 and 12 weeks. Four percent were reported between 13 and 15 weeks, and another 4% were performed between 16 and 20 weeks of gestation.

There were 468 abortions at 21 weeks of gestation or later. Of these, 137 abortions were performed at 28 weeks or later, an increase of 16% from 2022 when there were 118 abortions performed at or after 28 weeks. Abortions at 21 weeks or later composed over 3% of the total in 2023. Gestational age was not reported for 0.3% of Colorado abortions.
Later-term abortionist Warren Hern of Colorado, was recently profiled in The Atlantic (May 2023):
He specializes in abortions late in pregnancy—the rarest, and most controversial, form of abortion. This means that Hern ends the pregnancies of women who are 22, 25, even 30 weeks along.
In The Atlantic interview, it is noted that, “Hern is reluctant to acknowledge any limit, any red line. He takes the woman’s-choice argument to its logical conclusion…”
Late-term aboritons are more common in America than most people think.
According to the CDC, 1.3 percent of abortions happen at 21 weeks or later, but 1.3 percent of 930,000 total abortions still equals 12,000 unique human beings killed each year at 21 weeks or later, when babies are capable of feeling pain and sometimes capable of surviving outside of the womb.
Below is an ultrasound of a 28-week-old unborn baby — the kind of babies killed by the dozens in Colorado.
