By this same logic, Target should be on your go-to list. In contrast to Walgreen's, Target has refused to require that its pharmacists fill prescriptions for emergency contraceptives if the pharmacist feels such an act conflicts with his religious beliefs.

Planned Parenthood is in a tizzy over this! So go to Target. No, they've banned bell ringers (or is it the word "Christmas"?).

What ever happened to the mom and pop drugstores???

I think I am correct that any Target store within Illinois would not be able to refuse to require its pharmacists to fill prescriptions for emergency contraception.

The law of Illinois does not allow pharmacies within the state of Illinois to have such a policy.

Walgreen's has complied with the law -- even though, apparently, they wished to allow the pharmacists who work for them to exercise their religious beliefs.
