This was the goal the whole time. Probirth people don't give two shits about babies and children. Expect sexual violence against children and women in that town to sky rocket. Expect the poverty rate to increase as well. Except infant and pregnancy deaths to go up as well.
And they will keep voting Republican.

It also helps that it’s setup so that one of their votes equal 10 sane votes.
I would imagine their goal was to enforce their moral code on everyone, regardless of the reality of life. This is the result. I do agree that Republicans don't give two shits about children or women who they don't have emotional investment in. This is a "major issue" they can say they made progress on, since they can't claim they did anything else.
That's a part of it. But ensuring a poor, unhealthy, uneducated, and subservient population is the main goal. Moral codes are just a shield to hide behind as those making these rules are the most corrupt and immoral people in the world. They know emancipation of the working people is the end of suffering and the end of their (white wealthy men) control.
Yeah abortion was considered a weird Catholic issue in Christianity until the religious right was looking for a new bogeyman after their opposition to desegregating private schools became a losing issue.
I have doubts the actual seated Republicans have the brains to have that as a goal. I can believe those politicians have fanatic beliefs and the ends justify the means ideology. I am of the opinion that the think tanks, who they get their talking points and directions from, are pursuing the goals you stated in order to keep power.
Oh you think Republicans created this plan. Nope their wealthy donors are the ones coming up with all this.
They're not pro-birth. Pro-birth is living wages and access to health care.
They're anti-women, forced birthers, and stochastic/social murderers.
