Because it's about controlling women. If a women has a miscarriage or the baby is nonviable in any way the woman must have done something to cause it. So she must be punished, if not legally, than medically. Just look at what's happening to women that have miscarriages in Ohio. (a state that just enshrined the right to an abortion by popular vote but it's still controlled by the GOP.) If you live in a read state and are pregnant, leave the state asap. Your life and your babies life is in danger even if you have a pregnancy with no complications.
Oh.. Someone who knows my pain and hellscape. Would that I could escape it. My wife is pregnant right now and has some health conditions, so we have 2 major existential dreads on top of all the other normal ones. 1. That she miscarries or has other complications due to her autoimmune disease and 2. If she does, some asshole is going to arrest her for "being pregnant while ill".
And if you tell a GOP member that their belief system pushes away health care works and causes stress in pregnant women, which both causes more miscarriages. They'll just laugh in your face. Such deplorable people.

Yup, I don't even need to listen to it. Thanks for sharing for the others.
It’s about none of that. Their voting base is religious. And not just pray ever now and again religious- they’re psychotic religious. Like… burn down abortion clinics religious. And, electrocute the LGBTQ into heterosexuality religious.
These “lawmakers” couldn’t care less about controlling women. For themselves or for anyone. It’s not important to them at all. The votes of a party of cowards are. And they are MANY. And these lawmaking MAGA traitors to America know this. And if they can pass laws that make cowards happy- they can guarantee to remain in power.
So it’s actually worse. They’re not doing it because that actually believe in it- they’re oppressing an entire gender based on the fact that doing so- will make them fucktons of money.
