Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers Hosts Pride Flag Raising At State Capitol To Celebrate Pride Month

Published | Video Starts at 05:58

I promised long ago that as governor, I would veto any bill that makes Wisconsin less safe, less inclusive, and less welcoming place for LGBT people and kids. That will never change, folks. And I said it before and I'll say it again. Raising the Pride flag above the Wisconsin state capital sends a clear, unequivocal and decisive message that in Wisconsin, all are welcome. No matter who you are, what you believe, who you love, or how you express your trust, your truest and most authentic self. You are family here. You belong here. (05:58–06:11)
