Because conservatives do not actually care about reducing the number of abortions that happen. If they cared about that, they would be all-in on affordable access to contraceptives and comprehensive sex education. Which they also, as a movement, oppose.
Conservatives do not care about reducing the number of abortions. They care about punishing the women who get them.
Punishing women for having non-procreative sex. When I have debated forced-birthers online it always comes down to that, but it takes a while of defeating other arguments that don’t make sense for that to come out. They are willing to force women to give birth in order to punish the mother for having recreational sex. They don’t seem to really care about the suffering of children this causes or the quality of their lives.
