Again, @Soaring Eagle 74. Defend these Democrat policies. What's good about them and how are they helping you and our country out? Personally, I think it's a damned shame that Democrats have to literally be forced to stop mutilating our children and letting males compete against females. What say you? You vote Democrat and their policies. Tell us what you like about them? Tell us what policies of the Trump administration that you were so dead set against. Come on...Use some of your socalled "intellect" and clue us in....Or should I just resort to calling you a dumbass, because all you do is stuff Trump's nuts in your mouth?
LINK: State House will hold the 1st of 2 votes Wednesday afternoon to override Gov Roy Cooper's vetoes
Republican supermajorities in the North Carolina General Assembly on Wednesday will attempt to override the governor's vetoes of legislation banning sex reassignment health care for minors and limiting transgender participation in school sports.
The State House will hold the first of two votes Wednesday afternoon to override Democratic Gov. Roy Cooper's veto, which, if it passes, would set up the state Senate for a decisive final vote Wednesday evening, according to the Senate leader.
The first North Carolina bill would bar medical professionals from providing hormone therapy, puberty-blocking drugs and surgical gender-transition procedures to anyone under the age 18, with few exceptions. If the bill is overridden, the legislation will take effect immediately.
If the GOP effort to override the veto is successful, North Carolina would become the 22nd state to enact legislation restricting or banning sex reassignment for minors.

If the GOP effort to override the veto is successful, North Carolina would become the 22nd state to enact legislation restricting or banning sex reassignment for minors.
Its critics argue it is discriminatory as it precludes biological men from an opportunity to play a sport under the female gender to which they choose to identify.
Republicans gained a veto-proof supermajority in both chambers first time since 2018 after North Carolina state Rep. Tricia Cotham announced she was switching to the Republican Party in April.
Initial votes indicate Cooper’s vetoes of both bills will likely be overridden.
Local LGBTQ+ groups have vowed to challenge the sex reassignment ban in court as they say the irreversible surgery is safe and, at times, medically necessary for minors. Such medical care is also supported by leading professional health associations, including the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Medical Association and the Endocrine Society.
If the veto is overridden and sex reassignments are banned, minors who had already started treatment before Aug. 1 could continue receiving that care if their doctors deem it medically necessary and their parents consent.
