Hundreds protest HB2 in downtown Raleigh

RALEIGH, NC (WWAY) — Triangle families marched through downtown Saturday towards the governor’s mansion to protest the controversial House Bill 2.

Hundreds were there at the protest calling for Pat McCrory to repeal the law.

The law, approved by the Republican legislature and GOP Gov. Pat McCrory, responded to a Charlotte City Council ordinance approved in February that would have extended protections to gays and lesbians as well as bisexual and transgender people while at hotels, restaurants and stores.
