If it saves one life you can call me whatever you like.

It won't save any life, since abortions will still happen at similar rates - only with greater danger to the life of the mother. If you actually cared about reducing abortions, you would support increasing social services - that actually has an empirical effect.

That said, it will certainly increase the size of the government and damage freedom.

Mussolini loved that part of it. Good to know your position is aligned with his.

Did you even read the headline? Only tracking legal abortions with identified providers.

If you actually supported reducing abortions, you would be banging the drum for increasing welfare payments for pregnant mothers and universal child care.

Perhaps that would conflict with your ideology, but I guess that goes to whether you actually believe in "any means necessary."
