Deutsche Bank announced<\/a> Tuesday that it would suspend its plans to add 250 jobs in its Cary, North Carolina office, citing the state's sweeping law that overrode local measures protecting LGBT individuals from discrimination and limited employees' ability to sue over workplace discrimination.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I once interviewed at that office, for the job of Head Programmer (or similar). I have no idea why they brought me in for that. I got completely crushed. I did however, go on to work with a guy who did<\/i> end up getting that job.<\/p>\n

Heckofa job<\/a>, McCrory<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\nThe economic impact<\/a> of the state\u2019s controversial House Bill 2 continued to mushroom Tuesday, as Deutsche Bank announced it was freezing plans to create 250 jobs in Cary and a top Wake County economic development official said that five companies since early last week have canceled or postponed efforts to bring jobs to the county.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve had some companies choose to suspend their site selection search in North Carolina and consequently in Wake County,\u201d said Adrienne Cole, executive director of Wake County Economic Development. \u201cSome have said they\u2019re taking North Carolina off the list, others have said they\u2019re postponing things to see what happens.\u201d<\/p>\n

The economic development projects included an IT company and a clean energy company and ranged in size from 75 jobs to one that could have brought 1,000 jobs to the Triangle, she said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Effects are being felt<\/a>. N.C. Rep. Billy Richardson (D!) has a sad:<\/p>\n

By enacting House Bill 2, the legislature did the wrong thing. I made the wrong vote and we must now make it right.<\/p>\n

My parents raised me to avoid any rush to judgment and to consider the consequences of my decisions. They stressed to me that I will make mistakes but, when made, never, never compound a mistake by sitting silent and failing to own up to the error.<\/p>\n

Upon prayer and reflection, I have come to realize that I need to take action now. I will not be silent and allow North Carolina's values to be undermined by the travesty that is HB2.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

With Democrats like these... sheesh.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
