Alliance Defending Freedom Joins Anderson Case

In August of 2022, an Aitkin County Jury found that a Minnesota pharmacy did not discriminate when they refused to fill an emergency contraception prescription for our client, Andrea Anderson. Our legal team worked hard to appeal the decision to the Minnesota Court of Appeals to ensure Minnesota patients can safely access the healthcare they need.

The pharmacist who refused to fill the prescription added a new co-counsel to their case: the Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF), the legal team behind the lawsuit against the FDA’s approval of Mifepristone and other anti-abortion and anti-LGBTQ issues.

Keep an eye out for updates on the case soon, and support our work by donating here!
