North Carolina governor vetoes controversial DEI and transgender bills

North Carolina Governor Josh Stein vetoes four controversial bills Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) Initiatives and trans rights, political conflict with the Republican-led convention.

Democrat Stein blew up three DEI-focused bills that would “marginate” that would “marginate the vulnerable” and target Republicans who failed to pass the budget that just started the year.

The DEI Act should prohibit the recruitment of training, employment of practices and employee positions in state and local governments, and prohibit the use of state funds for DEI programming. The legislation would impose civil penalties on workers who violate the rules. No Democrats support these three Dee bills.

“When teachers, law enforcement and state employees need a raise, people need a shorter line on the DMV, the legislature failed to pass the budget and instead wanted to distract us by further dividing our cultural wars,” Stein said in a statement.

“These mean bills will marginalize vulnerable groups and undermine the quality of public services and public education. So, I veto these bills. I am ready to work with the Legislature when it takes serious care of protecting people and addressing pressing issues in North Carolina.”

It also affirms the recognition of both genders and requires the state to formally fix the new birth certificates of trans people on their old birth certificates if they change the gender assigned at birth.

Stein said in a veto message that he strongly supported anti-sexual exploitation provisions in the bill, but ultimately the measures went too far. He added: “My faith tells me that no matter our differences, we are children of God and, like the bill, it is wrong to target vulnerable people.”
