It’s totally fine if you believe that life starts at conception.
The thing that actually baffles me are the states that passed anti-abortion laws, but struggle to provide adequate health care, especially for those who are not financially stable.

I found this article, “States with more abortion restrictions have higher maternal and infant mortality”, but feel free to correct or educate me on the topic.

Edit: removed “this article” appearing twice and tried to fix preview

    Same thing with alcohol prohibition. People are going to break the law, legal or not. The US is said to be the freedom land, but women can’t have autonomy over their bodies.
    What I gathered is that 70% of the US congress is men, so it’s not their freedom that they sacrifice.  
    Christian values are important to some voters, so politicians can gain free points by promising anti-abortion laws.  
    The politicians who make such decisions think one term at a time and disregard the consequences as long as it doesn’t affect them. If they actually cared, they would also advocate for childcare benefits.
