WASHINGTON, D.C. — (03-24-24) — The White House criticizes congressional Republicans for adding a ban on PRIDE Flags from being hung at U.S. embassies to the government’s H.R. 2882 funding bill, saying it abused the budget process.
The White House said that President Biden will work for its repeal but for now, all American embassies worldwide are banned from hanging PRIDE Flags in celebration of PRIDE Season coming this summer.
House Speaker Mike Johnson promoted the PRIDE flag restriction as a win for Republicans during negotiations that led to a $1.2 trillion funding deal early Saturday, which averted a government shutdown. Biden signed the bill several hours later.
