I think political-related proposals should pass two tests. First: is the policy good in itself. Second: If the people on the “other side” passed a mirrored proposal how bad would that be? This is my shortcut to trying to guess how repugnant they might find my idea.
On the second issue, maybe right-wingers would insist that women in prison should not be allowed to have abortions (it would be a deterrent, and they think abortions should be minimised anyway). Which maybe gives some insight into how they perceive your proposal, and therefore might help you frame it in a way that provokes less opposition. (I think your writing style maybe results in you provoking more opposition than your idea in itself warrants).
