bathroom bill

North Carolina's governor launched a two-part strategy Wednesday that could end protracted litigation over the state's so-called bathroom bill and its replacement, while expanding LGBT protections

Powerful business interests and some Republicans joined Democrats and LGBT activists in opposing an effort to pass a law restricting bathroom access for transgender people.

In Texas, every statewide elected official is Republican and the GOP controls the legislature. But efforts to restrict bathroom access for transgender people show a party that's far from united.

Atlantic Coast Conference officials say they are encouraged by the filing of bipartisan legislation to change the state's so-called “bathroom bill” also known as HB2.

North Carolina's legislature is reconvening to see if enough lawmakers are willing to repeal a 9-month-old law that limited LGBT rights.

North Carolina's outgoing Republican Gov. Pat McCrory says he will call a special session so that legislators can consider repealing a law limiting protections for LGBT people.
