Subject: Fill My Pills Now
Dear [ Decision Maker ] ,
I believe in the right of every individual to have access to reproductive health care services, including birth control. Individuals who have medications prescribed for them by their health care providers should be able to have their prescriptions filled without any delay or discrimination. We believe pharmacies and pharmacists must ensure that women are not denied their legal prescriptions.

Birth control is basic health care used by 95% of women during their lifetimes.
Denying a woman access to safe, legally prescribed birth control is not just inconvenience...
...IT'S AN INTRUSTION on the doctor-patient relationship. When a woman and her doctor decide that birth control is right for her, it is wrong for a pharmacist to deny her prescription based on personal beliefs.
...IT'S DANGEROUS - women need and deserve timely access to birth control to prevent unintended pregnancy and to preserve and enhance their health.
...IT'S DISCRIMINATION against women.
Health care decisions should be made by women and their doctors, not politicians.
