We all know by now about North Carolina law HB 2, the Public Facilities Privacy & Security Act, which Gov. Pat McCrory signed into law in late March. But what is it? What does it do and what will the impact be if it is not repealed? The outrageous new law is described as the most extreme anti-LGBTQ measure in the country ' disabling cities from creating laws protecting LGBTQ people. It eliminated all existing municipal nondiscrimination protections for LGBTQ people, and forces transgender students in public schools and universities, as well as transgender people in publicly owned buildings, to use restrooms and other facilities inconsistent with their gender identity. And even more egregious, it bars municipalities from passing local transgender-friendly bathroom ordinates, like the one Charlotte, NC, had when this law was passed.
The language in HB 2 requires transgender people (and everyone else) to use public restrooms according to the biological sex on their birth certificate. But the legislation doesn't stop there. With the attention surrounding this law being focused on the LGBTQ component, very few people are aware that it affects many more people than just gay people ' it affects all workers in North Carolina. Opponents have called the new law a “hostile takeover of human rights.”

In recent years, there has been a growing number of dry cleaners claiming to be "organic," "green," or "eco-friendly."
