On Wednesday, North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper announced that he has vetoed three bills passed by the state's legislature:
(1) House Bill 574, Fairness in Women's Sports Act that prohibits transgender women from participating on school sports teams designated for women.
(2) Senate Bill 49, Parents Bill of Rights which increases parental rights and involvement in their children's education, including the right to seek a religious exemption from immunization requirements, the right to withhold consent for the child to participate in reproductive health education programs, and the right to review all material their child has borrowed from a school library, among many other rights.
(3) House Bill 808, Gender Transition for Minors, which prohibits medical professionals from performing surgical gender transition procedures on a minor or prescribe puberty blocking drugs or cross-sex hormones to a minor.
