What does that have to do with moving between states?
In some states, saving her life would have been illegal. Many women rightfully fear living in such states even if they are not currently pregnant because it's a dystopian nightmare. It's literal body horror. Imagine being raped, getting pregnant, being forced to carry the baby, then one day the pain is unbearable and the bleeding won't stop but the doctors just sit there and watch you die. Some might risk giving you a painkiller, others fear even that could put them at risk.
It's not that it's illegal to move to another state. But it might be a death sentence.
Oh, I understand what you mean now - since the laws in some states are so strict in this regard, that makes it dangerous to go live there as a woman.
I have heard there are states trying to track and prosecute women for leaving their home state to get an abortion, too.
