I knew I liked NJ for a reason

New Yorkers (us in the city, anyway) have a certain level of disdain for all things New Jersey. Not quite the same level as for, say, Long Island–but there’s an expected amount of mocking of the garden state. Don’t ask me why, it’s a NY thing.
Well mock no more, my NYC brethren. Cause NJ just took it up a notch.

A pharmacy would be required to fill prescriptions for any drug it stocks such as birth-control pills regardless of a pharmacist’s moral beliefs under a bill that cleared the Legislature on Monday.
The bill, approved 56-18 by the Assembly, establishes a pharmacy’s duty to fill lawful prescriptions without undue delay and without consideration for a pharmacist’s moral, philosophical or religious beliefs.
If a pharmacy doesn’t have a prescription in stock, the pharmacy would have to either obtain it under expedited ordering or find a nearby pharmacy to fill the prescription.

NJ, I knew I loved you for a reason.
