North Carolina’s bathroom bill cost the state at least $3.7 billion, new analysis finds
March 27, 2017 /
A year after North Carolina enacted a law regulating transgender people’s use of public restrooms, sparking boycotts and costing the state jobs and sports events alike, a new analysis says the legislation’s economic fallout is greater than previously estimated.
The "bathroom bill" could cost the state at least $3.7 billion by 2028, according to an Associated Press assessment that tallied the losses — confirmed and projected — from events, meetings and business expansions that were scrapped due to the law.
