#HB237
I hate to direct folks to twitter but I can’t keep updating. The NC Mask Bloc account is the best place to learn the bill status and how you can act to fight it . x.com/clt_mask_blo...

Please see the linked comments on this.

The language of the NC bill HB237 says masking is allowed to, “prevent the spread of contagious disease”.

Not, “masking is allowed if you have a health problem”.

Good: I did see a group organizing folks to contact reps about HB237 (the NC mask ban)
Less good: they're asking folks to email every rep
Good: but also to call your specific rep
Maybe good: my rep is listed as a top targets to flip

I emailed something very targeted to my rep's priorities, so 🤞

If, like me, you live in NC and voted for Roy Cooper, please take 2 minutes this morning to call the Governor’s office and demand a veto on HB237, “unmasking mobs and criminals.” 919-814-2000. Yes, the supermajority may override the veto. Don’t let them have this without a fight.

PS - if you live in NC and are seeing smoke & poor air quality from the Table Rock & Persimmon Ridge fires, call your NCGA electeds and tell them because HB237 passed last yr that you now can't legally wear a mask in public to breathe clean air. Tell them to fix that legislation so you can. #MaskBan

We were also able to get audio of two of the NC Senate sessions from last week where they discussed HB237 (they don’t have an accessible web archive). They sent it to us via snail mail and it arrived just in time for the episode. Full audio here:

HB 237 passed in North Carolina. That makes wearing a mask in public illegal, even for health reasons.

It’s not enacted yet, so please contact your reps and speak up:

More of Dr. Richardson's legacy from her own shortsightedness:

- A 12 week abortion ban.
- Anti-Transgender bills.
- 2024 culture war bills such as HB237 & SB382.

Yes, Republicans did do these. But they were enabled by poor Democratic leadership which allowed the party to crash and burn.
