HB2 wipes out any and all local ordinances on discrimination and pay.

So, if Fayetteville or Jacksonville want to pass an ordinance offering service members and veterans connected to Fort Bragg or Camp Lejeune preferred parking or an extra discount on school supplies, they can’t. HB2 makes that illegal.

So, if Asheville wants to implement a a minimum wage hike to help local workers deal with insane costs of housing in the mountains, they can’t. HB2 makes it illegal.

HB2 forbids state courts from hearing any discrimination claims at all.

So, if you get fired because you are black, white, Hispanic, Asian, female, male, whatever – you have to hire a federal lawyer and go to federal court.

So, if your wife gets paid $9 an hour to do a job a guy with 2 years less experience got paid $20, you have to hire a federal lawyer and go to federal court.

HB2 allows business and government employees to discriminate against gay people.

So, if your business wants to tell a gay person to take a hike, then HB2 is cool with that. If a government employee wants to refuse to deal with someone because they are gay, then HB2 is cool with that.

And if you are cool with that, then you better not be on here complaining about the ACC exercising its right to pick venues in different states. You really can’t have it both ways.
