From DIA (Drug Information Association):
"Judge rules Illinois cannot force two pharmacists to dispense emergency contraception.
The AP (4/6) reported, "A central Illinois judge has ruled that the state can't force two pharmacists with religious objections to abortion to dispense emergency contraception." The judge "issued a temporary restraining order Friday until he can hear arguments against the rule from [the pharmacists] who object on religious grounds." In December, "the Illinois Supreme Court ruled...that the pharmacists' case must be heard." The court ruled that "there would be no exceptions" to a 2005 rule "ordering pharmacies to dispense the so-called 'morning-after' pill." The restraining order applies only to "five northern Illinois pharmacies," and "Francis Manion of the American Center for Law and Justice, which is representing the pharmacists, doubts the state would enforce the rule elsewhere before the case is decided.""
