Gov. Rod Blagojevich approved an emergency rule Friday requiring pharmacies to fill birth control prescriptions quickly after a Chicago pharmacist refused to fill an order because of moral opposition to the drug.
The emergency rule takes effect immediately for 150 days while the administration seeks a permanent rule.
"Our regulation says that if a woman goes to a pharmacy with a prescription for birth control, the pharmacy or the pharmacist is not allowed to discriminate or to choose who he sells it to," Blagojevich said. "No delays. No hassles. No lectures."
Not too fucking bad.
Sure, I've had some questions about how he's solving our budget problems, but at least the guy gives a fuck about the things that are actually important to EVERYBODY.
Por ejemplo, I don't think I heard him talk about Terry Schiavo.
