Conservatives are shifting toward promoting teenage pregnancies and proposing to discourage contraception among young women, citing concerns about declining birth rates.
Katie Miller (podcaster) and Marc Siegel (Fox News analyst) criticized the drop in teen births, attributing it to hormonal birth control.
