RALEIGH, N.C. — Time is running short for North Carolina legislators to change a law limiting protections for the LGBT community.

Even if changes are made before the weekend, when the legislative session is expected to end, there's no appetite to undo a provision requiring transgender people to use restrooms corresponding to the sex on their birth certificates in many public buildings.

Pressure to change the law has come from several quarters including the NBA, which has been considering whether to keep its 2017 All-Star Game in Charlotte. The league issued a joint statement late Thursday with the Charlotte Hornets, saying they doubt that any proposed changes would go far enough.

The Human Rights Campaign issued a statement Friday saying that a full repeal of the law is the only acceptable solution.
