Walgreens is currently under fire over accounts of its treatment of women and all potentially pregnant people, as people share disturbing stories of ways in which the store and its employees have allegedly tried to cash in on their newfound freedoms to exploit and control our bodies post-Roe v Wade.

People have been sharing stories online about being denied access to contraception in Walgreens stores and pharmacies, and a woman named Jessica Pentz shared her story with the Star Tribune earlier this month. She forgot her oral contraception at home while on vacation with her husband, so she stopped into a Walgreens to pick up a box of condoms. Pentz said the clerk working at the time refused to sell them to her, saying it was against his religious beliefs.
