Content: The abortion ratio for Hispanic women (225 per 1,000 live births) was  lower than the ratio for non-Hispanic women (233 per 1,000 live  births). This differs from the findings for abortions performed in  1999 and reflects a return to the previously observed pattern among  Hispanic women of slightly lower or similar ratios to those for  non-Hispanic women. As in the past, the abortion rate per 1,000  Hispanic women was higher than the rate per 1,000 non-Hispanic  women. This finding is consistent with another study but  differs substantially from abortion rates by ethnicity that were  published previously by NCHS. The differences are likely due to  the method used to account for under reporting of abortions by  adjusting CDC tabulations to national totals. This finding also  suggests that the reporting areas for the 2000 report are not fully  representative of the U.S. Hispanic female population of reproductive  age. Race-specific and ethnicity-specific differences in legal induced  abortion ratios and rates might reflect differences among groups in  factors such as socioeconomic status, access to family planning and  contraceptive services,  contraceptive use, and incidence of unintended pregnancies. Non-Hispanic Whites who make up 68% of the United States population are responsible for only 40% of the abortions (unfortunately the statistics don't indicate how many of these are due to rape, adultery, mental or physical defects, or the result of pregnancy from interracial relationships, which undoubtedly many are). Blacks, on the other hand, make up 12.4% of the United States population, but are responsible for 32% of all  abortions; while Hispanics make up 14.8% of the population are responsible for 20% of all abortions.
