House Speaker Thom Tillis (R-Mecklenburg) released the following statement today concerning the veto override of House Bill 854, the Woman’s Right to Know Act:
“I applaud the actions of the House today that resulted in the passage of a responsible piece of legislation over the objections of the Governor. The Woman’s Right to Know Act enables women to make a fully informed decision about whether or not to end a pregnancy, without restricting her freedom to make the final decision. This bill is widely supported by North Carolinians and mirrors similar informed consent laws in dozens of other states. I am proud of the bipartisan victory this override represents, and I am pleased that this common-sense law is on the books.”
