CVS and Walgreens to begin selling abortion pill mifepristone in some states
Both pharmacies plan to start providing the pill in a select number of states first, and gradually expand to others where it's legal.
Fast forward a few months and we’ll be seeing bomb threats being sent to CVS and Walgreens Conservatives are becoming unhinged.
The 80's all over again
leave to the US to turn abortion into a state's rights issue
just like cannabis and certain other things your rights depends on the state you live wind up in
We can thank the good ol' christian right for that. But guess what, you're gonna see it's the really religious who were kept from learning about their bodies and sex in the first place that will be the biggest customers of these pills. Mark my words. 😆
The chain will begin filling prescriptions in Massachusetts and Rhode Island and will "expand to additional states, where allowed by law, on a rolling basis."

Wait, where is it illegal?
States with abortion bans: TX, OK, etc., I believe.
Hmm. I could start an online store that ships to Texas.
One neat thing you can do is buy it in those states, and sell it in the other ones.
TLDR:
Walgreens expects to begin dispensing the drug"within a week," the company told ABC News. It will start providing the pill in a small number of its pharmacies in New York, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, California and Illinois. As far as potential expansion, Walgreens is keeping an eye on Kansas, Montana and Wyoming
CVS says it plans to begin dispensing "in the weeks ahead" in states where it's legal and is "working with manufacturers and suppliers to secure the medication and are not yet dispensing it in any of our pharmacies." The chain will begin filling prescriptions in Massachusetts and Rhode Island and will "expand to additional states, where allowed by law, on a rolling basis."
Omfg please, as someone on the border of Kansas but it's illegal in Missouri (as are all options for abortion, zero exceptions until it "threatens the life" of the person carrying*). Illinois is next closest over 4 hours away.
*Side note, why the fuck haven't lawyers used the approach that being forced to carry at all threatens the person carrying, therefore cruel and unusual? Being pregnant WILLINGLY is dangerous.
