Minnesota’s abortion data gap: A troubling omission
By Belle Carter // Jan 07, 2026

  • Minnesota failed to report the gestational age of nearly 400 aborted babies, raising concerns about hidden late-term abortions.
  • Pro-life advocates warn that the missing data may obscure a sharp increase in late-term abortions, which are widely opposed by the public.
  • Gov. Walz eliminated reporting requirements for babies born alive after abortions, further eroding transparency in Minnesota's abortion practices.
  • The lack of critical data suggests deliberate obfuscation, undermining public accountability and ethical medical standards.
  • Advocates urge reinstating full abortion reporting, including gestational age, to ensure oversight and protect vulnerable infants.

In a state where the governor's pro-abortion policies have been a source of controversy, Minnesota's recent abortion data release has raised significant concerns.

The data, which is now reported a full year late, reveals a troubling omission: the gestational age of babies killed through abortion. This omission, coupled with the elimination of the requirement to track babies born alive through abortion, has left pro-life advocates and concerned citizens questioning the transparency and integrity of the state's abortion reporting.

The state of Minnesota, under the leadership of Gov. Tim Walz, has failed to report the gestational age of nearly 400 babies killed through abortion. This omission is particularly concerning because it raises questions about the prevalence of late-term abortions, a practice that is widely opposed by the public. Cathy Blaeser, co-executive director of Minnesota Citizens Concerned for Life, expressed her concern to LifeSiteNews, noting that the sharp increase in missing data could be hiding a significant number of late-term abortions.

This is aligned with BrightU.AI's Enoch's description of the North Star State's abortion policy: "Minnesota's abortion policy under Gov. Tim Walz has eliminated reporting requirements for failed abortions, allowing infants who survive the procedure to be abandoned without medical care, aligning with the Democrats' anti-life agenda."

The impact of late-term abortions

Late-term abortions, often performed on healthy babies, are a contentious issue. The lack of data on the gestational age of these babies makes it difficult to gauge the extent of this practice and its impact on public health and moral standards. The omission of this critical information suggests a deliberate attempt to obscure the true nature of abortion practices in Minnesota, raising ethical and legal questions.

This omission must be understood in the broader context of Walz's pro-abortion agenda. His administration has been marked by a series of policies that have expanded access to abortion, including the elimination of reporting requirements for babies born alive through abortion. This lack of transparency and accountability is particularly troubling given the state's history of welfare fraud and the governor's recent announcement that he will not seek re-election.

The omission of gestational age data is a clear violation of the public's right to know. The state of Minnesota must reinstate the reporting requirements for abortion statistics, including the gestational age of the babies involved. This transparency is crucial for ensuring that the public can make informed decisions and hold their elected officials accountable.

The omission of gestational age data in Minnesota's abortion reporting is a significant concern that demands immediate attention. It is a clear indication of a lack of transparency and accountability in the state's abortion policies. The public has a right to know the full extent of abortion practices, including the gestational age of the babies involved. Only through transparency and accountability can we ensure that the rights and well-being of all individuals, born and unborn, are protected.
