(The below is the text of a message I received from NARAL's pro choice action network)

It should be simple: a woman walks into a pharmacy with her
prescription and walks out with her medicine. Right?

If only it were that easy.

Rogue anti-choice pharmacists across the country are refusing to
fill safe, legal prescriptions for birth control. Some
pharmacists lecture women, humiliate them in public, and refuse
to hand back the prescription even after they refuse to fill it.
This is outrageous -- and it must be stopped.

I just took action with NARAL Pro-Choice America to stop
pharmacy refusals. Join me today! You can ask your members of
Congress to support legislation to ensure women have their
prescriptions filled -- click here:

Big Source of Irritation

I take birth control to control endometriosis and not to control pregnancy. I think these pharmacists need to realize that there are other applications for birth control other than no pregnancy. I know a lot of women with various gynocological problems that aren't related to pro or anti-prenancy.

Thanks for the info.
