Two school districts in California banned the display of LGBTQ+ pride flags amid ongoing efforts by conservatives to crack down on the LGBTQ+ community’s visibility and civil rights. In Southern California, the Temecula Valley Unified School District passed a resolution banning all flags except U.S. and state flags, in a meeting that drew a large turnout of parents, teachers and students. The Temecula board passed its resolution by a 3-2 vote. The three board members who voted together — Jen Wiersma, Joseph Komrosky and Danny Gonzalez, received backing from the Inland Empire Family, a conservative Christian political action committee. The pride flag bans are part of a larger push by conservative activists to focus their political efforts on local school districts, particularly in California. The Sunol Glen Unified School District near San Francisco passed a ban that was specific to LGBTQ+ pride flags.
