Argentina legalizing abortion is a tragedy that breaks my heart, but what also breaks my heart is their maternal mortality rate being 39 per 100,000.

To out in perspective, the US is criticized for our ridiculous maternal mortality rate

Which is HALF that of Argentina.
This is what I keep saying. This is what so many prolifers don't get. Address the problems that lead to abortion. Address the cultural and social barriers that heard women into abortion clinics. You can make abortion illegal and women will still get them. Offer real solutions
And no this isn't me saying we shouldn't make abortion illegal. I'm saying there are so many things to do on a social level to majorly lower abortion rates while the legal fight drags on.

And it WILL drag on, regardless of who's in the oval office
