State Policy Trends

The Guttmacher Institute monitors and analyzes state policy developments in the United States—including legislative, judicial and executive actions—on a broad range of issues related to sexual and reproductive health and rights. Our State Policy Trends analyses provide a concise nationwide overview of state-level policy developments and trends, organized according to issue area. They are published twice a year and cover the first half and full scope of each year.
