Trump Administration Silent on Pride Month: No Official Proclamation This Year
President Trump's Administration Declines to Issue Pride Month Proclamation Washington, D.C. – June 4, 2025 – The White House announced today that President Donald Trump will not issue a proclamation in observance of Pride Month this year. White House spokesperson Karoline Leavitt stated, "This president is very proud to be a president for all Americans, regardless of race, religion, or creed." This decision has sparked debate among LGBTQ+ advocates and political commentators. While the White House has not offered further explanation, the absence of a Pride Month proclamation marks a departure from the traditions of previous administrations. The statement by Ms. Leavitt emphasizes the administration's focus on inclusivity, but the lack of a formal proclamation has been interpreted by some as a sign of the administration's stance on LGBTQ+ rights. The situation remains fluid, and further developments are expected.
