California “won’t be doing business with Walgreens” after the company said it will ban selling abortion pills by mail in 20 states, Gov. Gavin Newsom announced Monday on Twitter.
Newsom in a tweet added the state will not be doing business with “any company that cowers to the extremists and puts women’s lives at risk. We’re done.”
Walgreens’ announcement was made Thursday after attorneys generals in 20 states last month warned Walgreens and CVS that they could face legal consequences if they sell abortion pills by mail in those states.
It was not immediately clear what Newsom’s announcement means for Walgreens, or if any other Democratic-led states would follow suit.
