Text of the bill
(a) In general. Any retailer that stocks contraception that is approved, granted, or cleared by, or otherwise legally marketed under regulation by, the Food and Drug Administration for use without a prescription may not interfere with an individual's access to or purchase of such contraception or access to medically accurate, comprehensive information about such contraception.
(b) Limitation. Nothing in this section shall prohibit a retailer that stocks over-the-counter contraceptive products from refusing to provide an individual with such contraceptive product that is approved, granted, or cleared by, or otherwise legally marketed under regulation by, the Food and Drug Administration if the individual is unable to pay for the contraceptive product, directly, through insurance coverage, or through other payment mechanism.
