Cooper’s coup on HB2
Now Roy Cooper can say he’s protected more jobs against HB2 fallout than Governor Potty McCrory has.
After Cooper met with the CEO, New Jersey-based Braeburn Pharmaceuticals decided to proceed with a $20 million, 50-job manufacturing and research facility in Durham County. The company had been reevaluating its plans because of HB2.
Cooper can say, “I’m doing my best to clean up Pat’s mess. Elect me, and no more mess.”
Meanwhile, McCrory digs his hole deeper. He attacks companies like Braeburn and performers who speak out on HB2. He calls for “dialogue” but never engages in it. One day he says it’s a long-standing problem and, the next day, it’s a new one for all of us. One day he says it the law needs tweaking, the next he says it’s just fine. Always he blames the media and his political opponents for the mess he got himself and North Carolina into.
This issue helps Cooper three ways. One, HB2 clearly is hurting North Carolina, costing jobs, business and income. Two, the suburban women who will decide this election see it as Republicans picking on young people who are already having a tough time. And, three, McCrory has made himself “the Bathroom Governor.”
