Following the repeal of House Bill 2 in North Carolina, the ACC announced Friday that it will once again consider holding events in the state.

According to the Associated Press, the league Council of Presidents voted in favor of ending its ban.

The ACC Championship Game in football is set to return to Charlotte in 2017, and the women's basketball tournament will return to Greensboro.

Per Richard Fausset of the New York Times, a law forcing people to use public bathrooms based on the gender on their birth certificate was repealed Wednesday.
