Customers are calling for a Walgreens boycott after claims that customers are being denied birth control and condoms went viral.
Customers also claimed that they began receiving unsolicited baby formula samples in the mail after purchasing reproductive products or pregnancy tests.
The stories reflect a tense transition period in America, as many U.S. states start adapting to the overturning of a federally protected right to a legalized abortion. That ruling on a longstanding precedent set by Roe v. Wade now has some corporations struggling with franchises or regional stores. Some have workers who refuse to sell products which contribute to reproductive rights, medication used for miscarriages or legal abortions.
Some customers are using the hashtag #BoycottWalgreens on social media platforms like TikTok and Twitter to highlight being denied birth control or condoms because of the cashier’s moral or religious beliefs.
