Guests and contributors on a Wednesday “Morning Joe” segment worried that too many women in post-Dobbs America will become mothers instead of working corporate jobs.

The segment lamented over a study showing the job market has more vacant positions in states with strict abortion bans since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in June 2022. It showed that companies who offered financial support for employees to obtain out-of-state abortions saw an eight percent increase in their job postings. It also found that female-dominated jobs saw a drop in satisfaction.

Svenya Godell, chief economist for job listing website Indeed, said corporations will see fewer applicants in states restricting abortion, especially if they refuse cover the cost of an employee’s out-of-state abortion.

“If you are offering jobs that perhaps located in more Democratic-leaning states, or offering these types of benefits, you are more likely to see an increase in job seekers, particularly if you’re trying to attract women or if you’re hiring for jobs that are heavily dominated by women,” she said. “You might have a tougher time, or you might receive fewer clicks if your job is located in a state that doesn’t offer these benefits, where you have many more restrictions in place.”

NBC News correspondent Morgan Radford said the lack of abortion access is also impacting low-income women because they will be less able to seek high paying jobs. (RELATED: ‘A Rapist’s Bill Of Rights’: Pro-Abortion Activists Won In Kansas And For Some Reason Joe Scarborough Is Still Super Upset) 

In 2022, women of childbearing years — 25 to 34 years — had the highest labor force participation rate at 77 percent, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

A study by the Institute for Family Studies found that more women between the ages of 35 and 53 are likely to be happier if they have children. Nearly 30 percent of married women with children classified themselves as “very happy” and 24 percent of those without kids said the same, compared to only seven percent of unmarried, childless women. American women, on average, also report having fewer children than they want.

There were 32,000 fewer abortions in the U.S. in the first six months following the court’s decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, according to an analysis conducted by the Society of Family Planning. In the thirteen red states that enforced trigger bans, abortion fell by more than 95 percent.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.
