Abortion isn't a left/right issue, but a socially progressive/conservative issue. Left/right are being used in this context to refer to economic composition.

As leftism is historically the revolutionary position, and rightism the conservative, you can technically call abortion protections left, but in this specific context economics are at play.

That's where the whole idea of "socially progressive, fiscally conservative" positioning comes from.
