People think laws will stop abortion. Throughout history women have put liquids in their mouths and up their vaginas to end an unwanted pregnancy. To them the risk was better than bearing a child they didn't want or couldn't care for. Nothing will stop abortion. Better to make it safe or even better make it easier for women to keep their babies with decent maternity leave, affordable child care. The child care credit is a start.
