National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA)

North Carolina hurt its economy and reputation by passing HB2 and with their continued oppression of LGBTQ rights. Spin won’t fix it.

Hours after the NCAA announced that the fake repeal of the state’s anti-LGBTQ law was good enough for games to resume in the state, legislators are at it again.

The sporting organization says the law’s repeal “meets the minimal NCAA requirements” to allow the state to host games again.

Police were so suspicious of the protesters they questioned them when they left their seats to get drinks and use the arena bathrooms.

The North Carolina Sports Association estimated the state risked more than $250 million in economic impact if event bids submitted to the NCAA are declined.

Admitting this bill does not “fully correct” HB2, the Democratic governor told reporters he took the best deal he could get from Republicans.

How can you tell it’s a bad deal? Former Gov. Pat McCrory came out in favor of it, while LGBTQ groups and allies are sounding the alarm against it.

No comment yet from North Carolina’s Democratic governor, Roy Cooper.

Democrats claim Republicans are trying to paint Gov. Roy Moore as the bad guy who won’t compromise on a repeal.

Lawmakers want to challenge the status of the NCAA and Atlantic Coast Conference because they removed championships from the state over an anti-LGBTQ law.
