North Carolina Democrats File Nondiscrimination Bill to Counter HB2
Democrats in the North Carolina General Assembly today introduced House Bill 1078, the Equality for All Act, that would repeal and replace Gov. Pat McCrory's illegal and unconstitutional HB2.
The bill would ban discrimination against "a person's race, color, national origin, religion, age, disability, sex, marital status, familial status, sexual orientation, gender identity, military or veteran status, or genetic information."
The new ordinance, were it to pass and be signed into law, would provide protected class status in areas including housing, employment, public accommodations, insurance, education, and would establish a Human Relations Commission.
Primary sponsors of the bill are State Reps. Sgro, Harrison, Fisher, and Alexander.
