The critics of a recently passed law in North Carolina — and those who have threatened punative and legal action against the state — have either failed to read and understand the law, or they intentionally misrepresent it. Please see my important update below — Mat.
North Carolina is under siege by a pro-LGBT movement fueled by the propaganda of the Human Rights Campaign and Equality NC.
Now, 80 CEO's have signed and delivered a letter to Governor Pat McCrory, wrongly asserting that the recently passed law, HB2, the Public Facilities Privacy and Security Act, has "sanctioned discrimination" against LGBT people, while demanding that the law be repealed.
The law limits public bathroom access to a person's natural gender, rather than their perceived "gender identity."North Carolina's Attorney General, Roy Cooper, is refusing to defend the new law in court challenges.
+ + People should read the law and stop the histrionics!
The conflict began when the City of Charlotte passed a "bathroom" law that allowed men to use women's restrooms, locker rooms, and shower rooms. The ordinance also tried to reach beyond the Charlotte city limits to regulate practices of businesses that contract with the city.
Both of these mandates are contrary to North Carolina law. Under the state's existing law, a person born biologically male can still use the women's restroom, locker room, or changing facility if the person has had the designated sex changed on his birth certificate.
The North Carolina law is a commonsense provision that protects the privacy and safety of women and girls. Bathroom bills that allow men to use the women's restrooms and locker rooms are nonsense. A biological man should use the men's restroom. How simple is that?
+ + This is a vitally important issue confronting all Americans today.
The North Carolina law was passed to maintain statewide uniformity and prevents abuse, such as has happened in other states.
Privacy and safety concerns are being trampled in order to accommodate a very small minority of confused individuals.
This offer of Liberty Counsel's legal defense is another initiative in our ongoing "Push For Liberty" campaign.
But I assure you, THIS WAR IS FAR FROM OVER!
Your financial help is critical to moving this campaign forward!
Thank you, and may God richly bless you.

P.S. Tom, your financial support is vital to keep our legal team engaged in stopping radical federal, state, and private actions from further advancing the radical LGBT lifestyle. Your generosity also enables Liberty Counsel to advance other key legal positions and public policy initiatives in which we are actively engaged.

Liberty Counsel has offered to defend the North Carolina Public Facilities and Security Act because it is both constitutional and a common sense regulation.

The North Carolina legislature reiterated the policy that such regulations must be done on a statewide basis. Cities have no authority to create a conflicting patchwork of laws that vary from city to city and county to county. This law overruled the ill-conceived "bathroom" law of Charlotte.

Recently, a 51-year-old, cross-dressing male in Georgia entered the women's restroom and exposed himself to women who were shocked and offended. In Minneapolis, a 15-year-old boy entered the girls' locker room where five girls were in various stages of undress as they prepared for a basketball game. The boy looked around and disrobed in front of the frightened girls. When the girls and the parents complained, school authorities said they could not prevent boys from using the girls' locker room because of a so-called "transgender" policy.
Privacy and safety concerns are being trampled in order to accommodate a very small minority of confused individuals.

Will you help us build the Push for Liberty war chest? We face well-funded adversaries and a propaganda machine that is arrogantly announcing that this war is over.
But I assure you, THIS WAR IS FAR FROM OVER!
