Good point. Although that is not a change from the current law or the law pre-COVID. Apparently that has been illegal in NC all along. This law would, however, add some penalties if a crime were committed while wearing religious coverings. Seems like additional grounds for a constitutional challenge.
There is a minor exception for religion during actual rituals or observances, with permission of the local government.
