Target refuses to fill Women's Health prescription

[Horse with no Name]

Imagine walking into a pharmacy with a prescription and being
told by the pharmacist, "I won't fill it. It's my right not to
fill it." Yes, it's outrageous, but this is exactly what
happened to a 26-year-old woman who presented a prescription for
emergency contraception at a Target in Fenton, MO, on September
30. Planned Parenthood is demanding that pharmacists dispense
medication, not moral judgment, and we need your voice to be
heard, too.

Contact Target and insist that every woman's pills be filled --
now!

Target has ignored three attempts by Planned Parenthood
Federation of America (PPFA) to determine their national policy
regarding pharmacists' refusal to fill valid, legal
prescriptions for birth control, including emergency
contraception. But they cannot ignore hundreds of thousands of
potential customers.



Pharmacies must ensure that women get their prescriptions filled
in-store, without discrimination or delay!
