        The NC GOP have continually offered up HB2 repeals before with untenable caveats.

        Yeah. NC resident here- it's not a repeal. It's basically the same law with a different name. #HB2

        Wait until we know the terms of the compromise to celebrate. Some of the proposals were window dressing for continued transphobia

        @RachelKasten It did not work. This is a repeal & replace situation. The new article changes nothing. A repeal in name only.
