Stand with Dan Forest and Privacy

We hoped that by now Republican leaders of the General Assembly learned their lesson that Roy Cooper cannot be trusted on HB2. Our legislative leaders seem to be letting out-of-state bullies like the NCAA and the Human Rights Campaign influence the laws we enact in North Carolina to protect privacy and freedom.  Governor Cooper, on the other hand, is just letting these groups run roughshod over the values we have as North Carolinians, seeking to impose their radical sexual agenda on the whole state.

Contrast these actions with the leadership of Lt. Governor Dan Forest, who has stood unflinching in his support of HB2. On Monday he sent you a letter regarding the attempts to repeal HB2. It captures my same beliefs:

- "I am deeply troubled that our respective elected bodies (House and Senate), duly elected by the people of this great state, seem to be reacting to the demands and timetables of an unaccountable, out of state organization (NCAA), not elected by the people, to enforce a radical policy change with which even their own organization does not abide."
- "I fear that if our General Assembly succumbs to this new form of economic and corporate extortion, we will be establishing a precedent and illustrating a template for future corporate extortion efforts on any number of legislative issues."
- "It will never be good public policy to allow men into women's and little girl's bathrooms and showers. HB2 guarantees that will not happen now. HB2 provides reasonable accommodation for a small minority of people that fear using multi-stall facilities in a similar fashion to what we did with the Americans With Disabilities Act."

This letter perfectly summarizes why we can't compromise with any of the flawed bills that are currently floating around. I ask you to please stand with Lt. Governor Dan Forest in continuing to protect the privacy and safety of women and children in bathroom and locker rooms.

Please listen to your constituents!
