Following a surprise move by the Charlotte City Council, Gov. Pat McCrory said Monday he would call a special session to consider repeal of House Bill 2.
The governors statement came in a rapidly unfolding series of events that could signal the end of a nine-month drama that catapulted North Carolina into national headlines. HB2, seen by critics as an anti-LGBT measure, prompted boycotts and cost the state millions in lost jobs.
Earlier, Gov.-elect Roy Cooper said legislative leaders have promised to call a special session Tuesday.
Senate Leader Phil Berger and House Speaker Tim Moore assured me that as a result of Charlottes vote, a special session will be called for Tuesday to repeal HB 2 in full, Cooper said in a statement.
