Chasten Buttigieg criticized Republican National Committee Chair Ronna McDaniel, calling her language hypocritical following her tweet celebrating LGBT Pride Month
: “Those with ‘deeply held religious beliefs’ are often the parents who force their LGBTQ children out of the home and onto the street. I’ve met with those kids. 40% of homeless youth in this country are LGBTQ. Re-visit your party’s platform before you open your mouth about #pride.”
“Her language is divisive and it’s dangerous and it’s making space for people in their party who seek to harm LGBTQ Americans,” Buttigieg said, invoking Florida’s governor as an example. “It’s making space for people like Ron DeSantis, who used the first day of Pride to sign anti-trans legislation. … I do not believe that is the party of inclusion or acceptance for LGBTQ Americans.”that would forbid transgender female athletes to play on girls‘ and women‘s sports teams at public schools.
