I know it often seems like the policies established in Washington don’t have a direct impact on us – on how we live our lives.  However, I think it’s critical to recognize that the GOP’s support of social conservatism is resulting in the establishment of laws that seek to control our personal lives, both overtly and subversively.

If you’re a healthcare professional or pharmacist with strong personal beliefs that make it impossible for you to offer unbiased medical opinions or services, you should have a career that doesn’t put you in a position that includes activities that conflict with your belief system.
