TOP LAWMAKER: NORTH CAROLINA RIGHTS LAW WILL STAY IN PLACE

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) -- A North Carolina legislative leader said Wednesday he doesn't see the need to repeal or revise a law that limits protections for the LGBT community.
At a news conference on the upcoming legislative session, state Senate leader Phil Berger referred to the law as "our commonsense bathroom safety bill" for its measures governing transgender bathroom access in many public buildings.
Gender identity and sexual orientation are also excluded from statewide workplace and public accommodation protections in the law, which triggered widespread criticism from equality advocates and business leaders nationwide.
But Berger, a Republican, said he doesn't think the law enacted in March needs to be altered when lawmakers return next week.
