That’s like saying why do they insist on lockdowns for covid-19 when people who are afraid of it are free to stay in their house.

Their nature is to want to control others and make them do what they think is correct. It will upset liberal NYers to no end to think that citizens in a state far away from them are not living the way the liberals want.

Also, I would not be terribly confident the conservative justices on the court would at this point vote to overturn Roe v Wade. Conservative justices will generally respect the principle of stare decisis which is to respect a decided question. RvW has been settled law for a long time and it would be very controversial to overturn it so they may not do it. What you may just wind up with is a very narrowed right to an abortion during a very limited time after conception, so none of this later term abortion horror.
