The measure, approved unanimously by the Austin City Council, requires Walgreens, the city's pharmaceutical contractor, to fill prescriptions for patients on Austin's medical assistance program "in-store, without discrimination or delay," even if an individual pharmacist declines to fill a prescription based on personal beliefs.

Attention Customers: As of today Walgreen's will no longer fills perscriptions for persons on Autin's Medical Assistance Program. Have a nice Day

That would probably be a violation of their contract with Austin.
