North Carolina Attorney General Roy Cooper Slams Gov. Pat McCrory’s Lawsuit: Enough Is Enough [VIDEO]

Posted this afternoon to the YouTube channel of North Carolina Attorney General Roy Cooper:

Since Governor McCrory signed House Bill 2 into law just weeks ago, there has been a real and devastating impact on North Carolina’s economy and reputation. Already we have lost thousands of jobs and tens of millions of dollars in economic activity.

And now the governor is pouring gas on the fire that he lit and putting billions in education funding on the line. Instead of doing what’s right for our state, he’s doubling down on what he knows he did wrong. Enough is enough.

For decades, North Carolina has been a beacon in the south with great universities, technology and forward thinking leaders. But now, the governor is putting all that and more at risk with his partisan gamesmanship.

Governor, for the sake of our schools, our children, our economy, and our good name, set the politics aside and undo this discriminatory law now.

Cooper is running to unseat McCrory in November. He has refused to defend HB2 in court.
