Campaign Unavailable

We're sorry, this alert is no longer available. If you would like to learn more about ways you can take action, please visit NARAL Pro-Choice America's Choice Action Network.

The short explanation of this alert was:

Wal-Mart did the right thing.  Thanks to pressure from activists like you and three brave women in Massachusetts, Wal-Mart reversed its discriminatory policy against stocking the “morning-after” pill!  Starting March 20, its pharmacies will start stocking the morning-after pill.

Though this decision is a step forward for women’s health, the retailer also said it would allow pharmacists to refuse to fill these prescriptions if they personally oppose birth control.  This decision leaves the door open for women to lose access to this legally prescribed medication due to a pharmacist’s personal beliefs.

Please thank Wal-Mart for changing its policy and urge the company to revisit its pharmacy refusal policy.
