OMalley urges North Carolina to move forward with HB2 repeal. [View all]

'In a possible signal he’s eyeing a second chance at running for president in 2020, former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley on Wednesday urged the North Carolina legislature to move forward with “full repeal” of the anti-LGBT House Bill 2.

O’Malley waded in on the issue via Twitter as lawmakers were considering a proposal to repeal HB2, but leave in place a moratorium barring municipalities in North Carolina from enacting pro-LGBT non-discrimination ordinances.

Approved by the state legislature and signed into law by Gov. Pat McCrory in March after a single day of consideration, House Bill 2 bars cities from enacting non-discrimination, reversing one recently enacted in Charlotte, and prohibits transgender people from using the restroom consistent with their gender identity.'>>>
