Statement From State Treasurer Dale R. Folwell, CPA, Regarding 24 States Filing Amicus Brief in Supreme Court Supporting North Carolina in Transgender Lawsuit

"We appreciate the support nearly half of the states have shown by filing an amicus brief urging the U.S. Supreme Court to review the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals' decision. Our position remains unchanged. State governing bodies are best equipped to evaluate health care coverage that provides the greatest good to the highest number of people. They, and not the courts, are the proper place to make such decisions."
