Wisconsin considers bill to force pharmacists to supply abortifacients



Catholic News Agency reports (3.5.2008):

A public hearing was scheduled for Wednesday to discuss Senate Bill 232, called the “Birth Control Protection Act.”  It would force all pharmacists, regardless of their beliefs, to dispense the morning-after pill and other FDA-approved abortifacient contraceptive drugs.  The legislation would also redefine the statutory definition of abortion to exclude all FDA-approved contraceptive drugs and devices.

Violators of the law would be subject to various penalties, including the revocation of their license.
