Albany Legislators Back Giving Morning-After Pill Without Prescriptions
ALBANY, June 22 - The Republican-led State Senate passed a bill on Wednesday that would allow pharmacists and nurses to dispense the so-called morning-after pill, which can prevent pregnancy after sex, to women who do not have prescriptions.
Since the Democratic-led State Assembly has already passed the bill, it will now be sent to Gov. George E. Pataki, who will have to decide whether to sign it. Seven other states have similar laws.
Governor Pataki, a Republican who is planning to decide soon whether to seek a fourth term or explore a run for president, was noncommittal on whether he would sign the bill, saying only that he would take a look at it.
