North Carolina's outgoing Republican Governor Pat McCrory has called for a special session tomorrow to consider repealing HB2, the controversial law curbing legal protections for LGBTQ people, commonly known as the "bathroom bill."

Colin Campbell, state politics reporter for the News and Observer, joins us from Raleigh with an update.
