A proposal in Wyoming to allow pharmacists to refuse service to gay and lesbian people was rejected by the Wyoming State board of Pharmacy.
The proposal is not unlike similar rules approved recently in other states that allow pharmacists to refuse to fill prescriptions for birth control pills and other drugs that they deem to be contrary to their religious beliefs.
On the down side, the Board of Pharmacy says it may approve the same measure with different language when the board re-convenes. This sounds like a perfect opportunity to let your opinion be heard.
