Pritzker Rips MAGA Extremists In Pride Month Message

Just in via press release:

On the first day of Pride Month, Governor JB Pritzker and lieutenant governor candidate Christian Mitchell reaffirmed their commitment to Illinois’ LGBTQ+ community. While Darren Bailey and MAGA extremists nationwide push hateful rhetoric and support efforts to strip LGBTQ+ rights and protections, Illinois remains a welcoming state for all under Gov. Pritzker’s leadership.

“Fighting for LGBTQ+ rights is in my DNA, and I’m so proud of the progress we’ve made to strengthen protections and expand opportunity for Illinois’ LGBTQ+ community,” said Gov. Pritzker. “While Donald Trump and MAGA extremists want to take us backwards, in Illinois, we will stop at nothing to ensure LGBTQ+ people are safe, welcome, and protected in our state. Illinois will always be a beacon for equality.”

“As a State Representative, I proudly cosponsored Illinois’ Marriage Equality legislation in 2013 because I believe every Illinoisan deserves equal rights and opportunities,” said lieutenant governor candidate Christian Mitchell. “I’m proud of my record advancing LGBTQ+ legislation in the General Assembly. Under JB Pritzker’s leadership, Illinois is a place where everyone is respected, valued, and welcomed – regardless of who they love or how they identify.”

Gov. Pritzker and Christian Mitchell are committed to uplifting the LGBTQ+ community in Illinois – from expanding marriage equality protections to protecting gender-affirming healthcare across the state.

I live in RED Florida and ZERO RIGHTS have been taken away from me. Fuck off with your lies and bullshit pandering of the LGB community. You don’t speak for all of us. You NEVER HAVE and NEVER WILL.
