McCrory could spend that money to help North Carolina&rsquo;s youth instead:<\/p>\n<p>1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The annual state cost per pupil transported on buses is $578. That means $42,000 could provide bus transportation to\/from school for 73 students for an entire school year.<\/p>\n<p>2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The average cost of textbooks for elementary schools students is $123 ($66.41 for math, $21.58 for reading and $35.42 for social studies). $42,000 could buy schools books for 340 elementary school students for an entire school year.<\/p>\n<p>3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The average cost of breakfast for North Carolina Public Schools is $2.10 and the average cost of lunch is $3.28. $42,000 could provide breakfast and lunch for over 7,800 students for an entire school year.<\/p>\n<p>Charlotte&rsquo;s non-discrimination ordinance is not merely about access to bathrooms. It is about protecting people&rsquo;s right to access public businesses &#8212; such as movie theaters, grocery stores, and gas stations &#8212; and public services like taxicabs. The ordinance grants LGBT-inclusive non-discrimination protections in government contracting. North Carolina&rsquo;s lack of a statewide LGBT non-discrimination law makes the Charlotte ordinance an important anti-discrimination tool.&nbsp; Eighteen other states and Washington D.C. already have statewide non-discrimination protections that include sexual orientation and gender identity in places of public accommodation &#8211; including but not limited to bathrooms.<\/p>\n<p>Anti-LGBT activists continue to label the nondiscrimination ordinance a &ldquo;bathroom bill&rdquo; &#8212; a deplorable effort to demean the rights of LGBT people and debase LGBT people, particularly transgender people, themselves.&nbsp; Preying on misinformation and ignorance, these anti-LGBT activists have smeared transgender people and suggested they are a danger to <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/www.flirt4free.com\/live\/girls\/?mp_code=akftr\">women<\/a> and <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/www.flirt4free.com\/live\/girls\/?mp_code=akftr\">girls<\/a> in public restrooms. In reality, the people most in danger of being unsafe in a restroom are transgender people who are forced to use facilities inconsistent with their gender identity or expression. Despite what anti-LGBT activists imply, the evidence over the last several decades is that non-discrimination ordinances provide more, not less, safety in restrooms.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/act.hrc.org\/ea-action\/action?ea.client.id=1954&amp;ea.campaign.id=49225&amp;ea.url.id=569911&amp;forwarded=true\" target=\"_blank\">Take action with HRC today by sending a message to Governor McCrory and legislative leaders in North Carolina.
