Hey John,

We have entered an exciting stage in our fight to put birth control pills on the shelves at your local drug store - no prescription needed!

• What's happening now: Policymakers and members of the media say they need to hear real stories about how difficult it is to access birth control under the current system (where you go to a doctor to get a prescription first).
• These stories will be used to build the case for over-the-counter access so we treat birth control pills just like we do condoms, lube, emergency contraception and so much more.

If you've had trouble accessing birth control pills, can you tell us about it in this form? We promise we won't share the story with anyone unless we reach out to you first asking for permission.

Not sure if your story works? Share it anyway. We're certain a lot of people faced delays, struggled to get an appointment, or even went without pills for a few days while they waited for a renewal. If you had any issue that would have been solved by having birth control pills at the local drug store, share your story. We need you to build a future where anyone can get birth control pills on the shelves at their local CVS or Walgreens without a prescription.

We're sharing this far and wide, so don't be afraid to send to friends as well!

Thank you so much for being a part of this movement,
