Hate Group Sues CVS Over Catholic Clinic Nurse Fired For Refusing To Fill Woman’s Birth Control Prescription

The Christian Post reports:

A nurse practitioner in Florida has filed a lawsuit against CVS Pharmacy for failing to grant her a religious exemption from the requirement to provide contraceptives.

The First Liberty Institute announced in a statement Tuesday that it filed a lawsuit on behalf of Gudrun “Gunna” Kristofersdottir, who was fired from her position at a CVS MinuteClinic in Tequesta for refusing to dispense hormonal contraceptives in violation of her Catholic beliefs.
