FORBES PUTS HB2 TAB AT LEAST $630 MILLION (Forbes) -- The fate of North Carolina’s controversial HB2 hangs in the balance of Tuesday’s election. The ‘Bathroom Bill’ is the colloquial, if crude, name for the state’s HB2 law that has cost the state at least $630 million in lost business since March, according to FORBES’ estimates. And that number could go even higher. Fans of HB2 are few, yet its defenders are staunch. Governor Pat McCrory has doubled and even tripled down on the embattled legislation while it remains a topic of jest for late night comedians and a source of pain for NC business.
