CWN Editor's Note: Overriding vetoes by Gov. Roy Cooper, the North Carolina General Assembly has enacted three laws that counter transgender ideology.

“One bill bans North Carolina doctors from helping minors change their sex characteristics, including giving them puberty blockers and hormone therapy,” The Wall Street Journal explains. “Another bans biological males from competing on women’s and girls’ sports teams in middle school, high school and college.”

“A third bans instruction on ‘gender identity, sexual activity, or sexuality’ in kindergarten through fourth grade, and requires schools to let parents know if their child asked to be called by a different name or pronoun.”
