RALEIGH — Three General Assembly members representing Rowan voted against repeal of North Carolina’s “bathroom bill” — Sen. Andrew Brock, R-Mocksville; Rep. Carl Ford, R-China Grove; and Rep. Harry Warren, R-Salisbury.

Sen. Tom McInnis, R-Rockingham, voted in favor of repeal.

The bill rolling back the contentious HB2 has passed the General Assembly and is now headed to the governor’s desk.

Democratic Gov. Roy Cooper has said he supports the measure. Republican legislative leaders announced a compromise with the governor late Wednesday night and the measure passed quickly in both the Senate and the House on Thursday.
