Among the reactions to Wednesday’s decision by the ACC:
N.C. House Speaker Tim Moore: “It is very unfortunate that the NCAA and ACC have decided to move their scheduled events out of North Carolina. No one ever wants to lose events under any circumstances, but these organizations are certainly entitled to host their events wherever they choose.

N.C. Democratic Party Executive Director Kimberly Reynolds: “This is another loss for North Carolina that could have been easily avoided – another disappointing day for the state.
