An Illinois judge on Friday provided pro-life pharmacists in the state with a legal victory in their case against the state government. The case centers on a 2005 executive order pro-abortion ex-Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich issued that would require pharmacists to dispense the morning after pill, which sometimes causes an abortion.
The pharmacists who filed suit to overturn the order said to be forced to do so would violate their religious and moral beliefs.
Sangamon County Judge John Belz issued a temporary restraining order last week against the state government ordering officials not to enforce the Blagojevich order.
