New Hampshire Board Renews Planned Parenthood’s Pharmacy License | After a New Hampshire anti-choice group attempted to deny pharmaceutical licenses to state Planned Parenthood clinics — preventing them from filling prescriptions for birth control and abortion-inducing medication — the state’s Board of Pharmacy unanimously voted to renew the license to dispense prescription medication. In April, New Hampshire Right to Life complained that Planned Parenthood was no longer eligible to have a pharmacy license, but the board agreed to issue the license after only 90 seconds. The attempt to limit Planned Parenthood’s ability to distribute prescription drugs comes after state Republicans tried to shut down the women’s health clinics by defunding the organization.
