(Washington, DC) – The U.S. fertility rate has hit a record low. New data from the CDC says for every one-thousand women in the U.S., only 53 gave birth last year. That’s down from 54 the previous year. It also found birth rates decreasing among younger women. The news comes despite attempts by the Trump administration to reverse the trend.
Last year, President Trump was reportedly considering a proposal to offer five-thousand-dollar “baby bonuses” to new mothers in the U.S.
