Dating back to the <\/span>Girl Scout Cookie Boycott of 2004<\/span><\/a>, challenging supporters of the abortion industry has been a hallmark of the Texas group Pro-Life Waco. So, when Walgreens and CVS accepted the offer from the Biden FDA to eventually fill prescriptions for chemical abortions, I immediately thought this was an opportunity for a \u201csustained encounter.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The launch of monthly pharmacy outreach in Waco began on March 31, 2023, at a CVS pharmacy. When that pharmacy closed in October, Pro-Life Waco switched our location to the local Target department store. Like all of the 1,900 Target stores, their pharmacy is CVS. Our Target\/CVS outreach began on Friday, November 3, and continued for each of six weeks. This included an amazing engagement on Black Friday.<\/span><\/p>\n

After close to a year of Pharmacy Outreach, Pro-Life Waco delivered a double barrel challenge to CVS and Walgreens on the afternoon of January 12. CVS and Walgreens pharmacies are located on opposite sides of Estates Drive in Waco, Texas.<\/span><\/p>\n

The tools used for Pharmacy Outreach in Waco are signs and a chemical abortion flyer. The signs are large, bold, and to the point about the abomination of CVS and Walgreens\u2019 decisions. We hold signs and also display signs with metal stakes. Our outreach is educational beyond the quick messages of signs. The most powerful sign is the physical presence of pro-life foot soldiers. Sixteen participated on January 12.<\/span><\/p>\n

PLW created a <\/span>tri-fold flyer<\/a> specifically for Pharmacy Outreach,<\/span> to place in the hands and minds of travelers and customers. The flyer approaches chemical abortion from every angle, including abortion pill reversal and the dangers to the mother with a link to <\/span>Live Action’s video on chemical abortion:<\/span><\/p>\n
