Absolutely not.
Somebody always has to pay for anything that has costs, and with this issue you're talking about taxpayers subsidizing a product for everyone who may need to get the product, even though the product is hardly too expensive for even the poorest of people to buy on their own.
What would be the point in creating this subsidy? Are you trying to put words into the mouths of anti-abortion legislators? Is this the implicit message you want anti-abortion legislators to send to all the residents of the state?
We who are anti-abortion are constantly being accused of ulterior motives, such as that we want "to control women's bodies," that we're "sexual fascists" who have no respect for reproductive autonomy, and so on. In order to prove that none of that is true, we hereby subsidize contraceptives for anyone and everyone who needs them. This should put an end, once and for all, to any question about whether we have respect for reproductive autonomy.
Is that what you want anti-abortion legislators to say?
