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.

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.

Oh I'm aware, I just don't count them because helping new families isn't actually the point of those.

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.
