FILE - In this Jan. 9, 2013 file photo, Phil Berger takes an oath as he was re-elected to North Carolina Senate President Pro Tempore in Raleigh. While the whole country is talking about the North Carolina law that limits protections for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people, a new survey shows one group that largely refuses to discuss it: the lawmakers who passed it. While Berger didn't respond to the survey, he discussed the likelihood of any changes with reporters Wednesday, April 20, 2016: "I don't know that I would at any point be ready to say we are going to make any changes. I just don't see the need for it." (Takaaki Iwabu/The News & Observer via AP, File) MANDATORY CREDIT
