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.

It always pisses me off when people try claiming they want to do that last part.
Not a single thing is stopping them from setting up support networks that, while I disagree with their politics, could legitimately do good by giving new families resources. But that's not actually what they want, it's never been what they want. Because if it was, they'd have done it already.
It's as simple as the cruelty is the point. Someone doesn't live their life exactly how they think it should be lived, they believe that person should be punished.
Those support organizations do exist to a certain extent. It's often an even bigger problem. It's "Women's Health Centers", faith-based "insurance" companies, and gay conversion camps. Catholic hospitals have issues, but they're the least problematic part of this.
Yeah there's a church near me that has a banner displayed with a picture of an infant saying, "don't abort me. Help is available. Talk to someone inside."
No phone number or email to contact, just a "come inside."
Allegedly (coming from a neighbor) if you go inside they try to sell you sketchy insurance and not much else.
Oh I'm aware, I just don't count them because helping new families isn't actually the point of those.
