The Guttmacher Institute charts abortion restrictions by year:
Twenty-four of the 43 new abortion restrictions were enacted in just six states. Arizona led the way, enacting seven restrictions; Kansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, South Dakota and Wisconsin each enacted at least three. Although some of the most high-profile debates occurred around legislation requiring that women seeking an abortion be required to first undergo an ultrasound or imposing strict regulations on abortion providers, most of the new restrictions enacted in 2012 concerned limits on later abortion, coverage in health exchanges or medication abortion.
Sarah Kliff adds:
There is one type of law that seems to be moving in the opposite direction: Barring abortion providers like Planned Parenthood from receiving state family planning dollars. Seven states passed laws like that in 2011, a number that dropped to two states in 2012.
