North Carolina's NAACP will ask the national organization for a boycott of the state because the General Assembly failed to repeal HB2 during a special session. 
 
"This legislature is trying to raise a new Confederacy in policy," NC NAACP president, Reverend William  Barber said at a news conference. "This group doesn't respect the Constitution. They do not respect the voices of the people. They do not respect the will of the people. They do not respect the vote, and it seems in some ways they do not respect just a little bit of money being removed from the state."
 
The NAACP staged a national boycott of South Carolina for 15 years over the flying of a Confederate flag at the capitol grounds.
