ST. LOUIS A suburban St. Louis pharmacist filed a federal complaint after being fired from a Target store for refusing to dispense the so-called "morning-after" birth control pill.
Heather Williams had worked at a Target store in St. Charles, Mo., for five years before being fired last month. Her attorney says that until recently, the company accommodated her objection to dispensing the morning-after pill.
Her complaint was filed with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.
Calls to Minneapolis-based Target were not returned.
Several states are wrestling with the issue of pharmacists who refuse to dispense emergency contraception pills for moral and religious reasons.
