**rth Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory said Tuesday he wants to change a new state law that prevents people from suing over discrimination in state court, but he's **t challenging a measure regarding bathroom access for transgender people.
His an**uncement comes as fallout widens over the law he signed last month that would limit protections for gay, lesbian and transgender people.
McCrory said he's using an executive order to expand the state equal employment policy to include ***ual orientation and gender, as well as affirming private businesses' rights to establish their own bathroom policies.
