In 2016 NC's governor signed HB2 (House Bill 2). This discriminatory bill was given the nickname "the bathroom bill" since it mandated that individuals use bathrooms matching their "biological sex" and blocked local anti-discrimination protections for the LGBTQ community. On October 17th, Governor Pat McCrory turned 60, so we wished him "happy birthday" with a full page ad in the Raleigh News & Observer.
And guess what? It worked. Pat's last day in office was January 1st, 2017. Now that's something to celebrate.
