Biden Boosts LGBTQ Pride Month With White House Celebration
- By Anita Powell
President Joe Biden on Saruday hosted what he described as the largest-ever White House event celebrating members of the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community, during a month dedicated to celebrating gay pride. This year’s event comes amid a rash of laws passed in U.S. states and around the world that critics say hamper the rights of LGBTQ+ citizens. VOA’s Anita Powell reports from Washington.
