Costco confirmed Thursday it has no plans to start dispensing mifepristone, also known as the abortion pill, as it says it hasn’t seen demand for it. Conservative groups claim they deserve credit for keeping the medication out of their stores.

Costco has announced that it will not sell mifepristone abortion pills at its U.S. pharmacies, citing a lack of consumer demand. The decision follows a campaign from religious groups, including the Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) and Inspire Investing, to persuade major retailers not to stock abortion tablets.

Costco will not sell the abortion pill mifepristone at its pharmacy locations, the shopping club told CBS News. The wholesaler said its decision not to sell the prescription medication was based on a "lack of demand from our members and other patients."
