A few weeks ago I wrote an article about North Carolina’s proposal to ban medical masks and remove the existing medical exemption.

I was concerned the removal of the medical exemption was strategic - allowing them to put it back later and pretend they were doing the disability community a favour.

When the House rejected the bill and sent it back to the Senate for revisions - many disability advocates (myself included) expressed concern that it would end up revised to be MORE problematic.

That’s exactly what happened. The new bill that’s been passed TODAY is an egregious violation of an individuals right to protect themselves from a deadly & disabling virus (not to mention their right to protect others).

I wrote about what it means, how it will harm high risk & vulnerable individuals and what we can do to fight back. And we MUST fight back. You don’t have to be from North Carolina - or even American - to help. You can call, email and post that you won’t spend a dollar in that State until this law is reversed.
