Donald Trump got LGBTQ+ business group’s event banned from federal building
Now the group may be one of several LGBTQ+ orgs to sue Trump over his unconstitutional order.
The Greater Houston LGBTQ+ Chamber of Commerce has said it may sue the Trump administration after the chamber was forced to relocate its annual event at the Federal Reserve Bank of Houston last week because of Trump’s executive order banning diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives. The chamber said the executive order violated its constitutional rights to free speech.
The chamber had planned on holding its second annual Thrive Small Business Summit & Matchmaker event at the federal bank last Thursday. However, the bank forced the event to relocate fewer than 30 hours before its start, telling the chamber that it could no longer host because of Trump’s order banning the federal government from supporting any activities supportive of DEI, Advocate reported. Trump’s order didn’t specifically define what constitutes a DEI initiative.
