The Atlantic Coast Conference has decided on Wednesday that it would move all neutral game sites in North Carolina to outside of the state. This decisions was made shortly after a state law curbed anti-discrimination protections for lesbians, gay, or transgender people. The law pass is commonly known as House Bill 2 and it nullifies local government ability to establish anti-discrimination laws. The bill also states that lesbian, gay, or transgender people must use the bathroom according to the gender that is printed on their birth certificate. All institutions that participate in the sporting events are in favor of the move because they are all about inclusion.Wednesday, September 14, 2016
