Utah GOP Lawmaker Allows Nazi Flags, Bans Pride Flags in Schools
Utah Representative Trevor Lee’s proposed bill, HB0077, seeks to ban pride flags from all government buildings and property, expanding its initial scope which only included public schools. The bill, favorably recommended by the House Education Committee, permits only specific flags, including state, national, and military flags, alongside those representing Native American tribes and universities. While Lee initially stated the bill aimed to ban pride flags, he now claims it allows historically significant flags for educational purposes, a point he later disputed. The bill has generated significant public debate, with passionate arguments both for and against its passage.
