Pharmacies urged to sell abortion pill by Senate Democrats and governors.

Senate Democrats have urged Walmart, Costco, Albertsons, and Kroger to sell the prescription abortion pill mifepristone and clearly let customers know how to get it at their pharmacies. The companies have not publicly stated yet whether they plan to sell mifepristone at their pharmacies. The Food and Drug Administration in January allowed retail drugstores to sell the abortion pill so long as they become certified under a federal program that monitors how the medication is dispensed.
