While previous versions of the document said that unborn children have a "fundamental right to life which cannot be infringed" and called for a constitutional amendment to guarantee that right, this year's platform uses much more moderate language and emphasizes the role of states in protecting life.
It reads: "We proudly stand for families and life. We believe that the 14th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States guarantees that no person can be denied life or liberty without due process, and that the states are, therefore, free to pass laws protecting those rights."
The platform goes on to laud the overturn of Roe v. Wade and then express support for prenatal care, birth control, and in vitro fertilization (IVF).
"After 51 years, because of us, that power has been given to the states and to a vote of the people. We will oppose late-term abortion, while supporting mothers and policies that advance prenatal care, access to birth control, and IVF," the new document reads.

I think it was inevitable Republicans would switch to the Kang & Kodos platform because there's still a large amount of support for abortion. There's no alternative to actually changing people's minds; it can't just be illegal but it must be unthinkable.

Even among most pro life strags their community is secretly full of pro abortion people
Any hard ideological question like that is far more wish washy when it comes to voting in private than what people say IRL. Just like immigration and economics

I think that's more prevalent amongst nominal Christians than with ones who actually attend/are part of the community, and at least with Catholics there really aren't great sources of statistics to begin with. I know this because it is a frequent source of frustration talking about politicized Church topics that the stats almost always include people who are baptized but haven't attended in years/only on Christmas and Easter.
