To: The North Carolina State House, The North Carolina State Senate, and Governor Roy Cooper
Repeal HB2
This discriminatory and bigoted law needs to be overturned for the benefit of all the citizens of North Carolina, its global reputation, and its economy.
Why is this important?
North Carolina state anti-discrimination laws should cover everyone, not just hand-picked groups that align with the the beliefs and values of the sitting governor and the state legislative majority. NC HB2 now bars local municipalities from creating their own rules prohibiting discrimination in public places based on sexual orientation and gender identity. Though North Carolina does have a statewide nondiscrimination law, it does not include specific protections for LGBTQ people. This bigoted law needs to be overturned for the benefit of all the citizens of North Carolina.
