I fear for the damage that McCrory and his puppetmaster Pope are bringing to the
state of NC before we can get rid of the Republican Legislature/Governor via
the next election cycle.

They won't give a hoot about petitions or protests. They are on a mission
to stuff the pockets of their buddies with whatever they can get
as fast as they can without regard to the long term consequences on
either the environment or citizens of NC.

It's going to be very difficult to watch the damage they will do.

I did sign your petition on your website.
