PHARMACISTS MUST SELL BIRTH CONTROL AS PRESCRIBED

To:  Health & Human Services, Senate

WISCONSIN
Pharmacist refuses to fill prescription
MADISON -- A state agency is accusing a pharmacist of blocking a woman's attempts to refill her birth-control prescription because of his religious beliefs.
The Department of Regulation and Licensing's complaint against Neil Noesen stemmed from his refusal to transfer the prescription to another pharmacy after he refused to fill it himself.
The complaint was filed Friday with the Wisconsin Pharmacy Examining Board over the 2002 incident at a Kmart pharmacy in Menomonie in northwestern Wisconsin.
Mr. Noesen has 20 days to respond, officials said.
Christopher Klein, spokesman for the Department of Regulation and Licensing, said pharmacists can refuse to fill birth-control prescriptions if they transfer the prescriptions to another pharmacy. <<

This is not an isolated story!!! All over the U.S. major chains such as CVS, Walgreens, Rite Aid and so on have pharmacists REFUSING to sell birth control pills, the morning after pill to RAPE victims and condoms, based on their religious beliefs.

Birth control pills are often prescribed for hormone irregularites and a variety of other problems NOT JUST BIRTH CONTROL.

THIS MUST STOP IMMEDIATELY!!!!!!

Sincerely,

The Undersigned
