"To the Missouri State Senate, women aren't people. They aren't American citizens. Pharmacists in Missouri can refuse to sell them birth control pills. It's about belief. If your pharmacist believes you, a woman, shouldn't be using birth control, he can refuse to sell you the drugs. He has a right in Missouri, according to the Senate, to see to it that you behave as he thinks you should. This is what it means to be a woman in America today? We're back to this?" --Anne Rice
As someone who has used birth control for years for medical purposes this bill is shocking. Birth control has helped me restore my vitamin D levels to normal and regulated my body. Birth control is NOT anyone's decision but the woman who needs it.
This bill is a violation of first amendment rights and must be stopped.
