Thank you for supporting our effort to have products that promote prescription drug abuse removed from Urban Outfitters stores and website. We are closing in on our goal of 5,000 signatures (if you haven't signed yet, please do!) on our Facebook Causes petition and we continue to make headlines. However, Urban Outfitters has yet to respond to our requests.

This is unacceptable. Join us Thursday, May 30, 2013 for a phone campaign to Urban Outfitters CEO & Chairman, Richard A. Hayne. Ask him to have the merchadise removed immediately. Here's how you can get involved:

1. Call (215) 454-5000.

2. Please feel free to use this suggested phone script:

“Hi my name is _____ and I'm calling to leave a message for Richard Hayne about the products made to look like prescription pill bottles that are being sold in Urban Outfitters stores. While you make a profit off of these pint glasses and flasks, prescription drug overdoses are killing our high school and college-age kids who are also your customers.

In 2010, prescription drug overdoses were responsible for over 38,000 deaths in the United States. I don’t think overdoses and deaths are something to laugh at, and these products make light of prescription drug abuse.

On behalf of [the teen in my life], I ask you to remove this merchandise from your shelves and website immediately."

3. If you can’t call, you can still:

Sign the petition.
