California cuts ties with Walgreens after company limits access to abortion pills

I have no idea why Walgreens would even take that approach.

Well, this is an easy way to bankrupt a company.

I think it’s the latter. It’s not like they can just force the stores in Cali to close. It will probably mean state employees wont be able to have prescriptions filled there, that’s it. City employees though, they most likely will still have the plan.

Walgreens won’t dispense medication for abortion in 20 states due to Republican attorney generals saying it’s illegal there.

I doubt it’s even blocking state employees from fulfilling scripts at the pharmacy. Doubt they could do that even if they wanted to. That’s between the patient and the insurance company. Reducing access to medicine over abortion pills that may be irrelevant to patients in need would be a political disaster.

Smells like grandstanding by Newsome. I bet it is just related to direct business with Walgreens and the state, so fairly limited.

Are they leaving Cali?

Article confusing

 

[Paper Boi]

what exactly does that mean... you can't just kick them out the state.

also if these states make it illegal to distribute the product there.... what exactly are they supposed to do?
