Ask Charlotte City Council to vote “NO” on the proposed City ordinance that would create non-discrimination laws on the basis of “marital status, familial status, sexual orientation, gender identity, and gender expression,”
This dangerous ordinance will impact the City of Charlotte negatively in four ways:
- Puts children and women in danger and violates their sense of privacy and security.
- The ordinance creates undue regulatory burdens on private businesses and unnecessarily exposes them to lawsuits and liability by requiring them to promote messages or ideas that are contrary to their religious beliefs.
- Requires the City of Charlotte to engage in impermissible discrimination on the basis of religion when it chooses businesses with which to contract and do business.
- Violates Article II, Section 24 (j) of the Constitution of the State of North Carolina, by creating a local non-discrimination ordinance regulating labor and trade.
