RALEIGH, N.C. – North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory, facing a Monday ultimatum from President Barack Obama's Justice Department over enforcing a law requiring citizens to use bathrooms and changing rooms that correspond with their biological sex, responded by suing the department.
Later that afternoon, the Justice Department punched back, filing a lawsuit that aims to make good on a threat to halt the flow of federal aid to the Tar Heel State if McCrory refuses to reverse course on its so-called bathroom bill law. A similar measure is pending in the Massachusetts Legislature, and fights over such laws in multiple states have pushed the issue into the national spotlight.
