WorldPride paraders march through Washington in defiance of Trump | ABS-CBN News

Video Description

LGBTQ+ people and supporters from around the world marched through the streets of Washington on Saturday (June 7) in a joyful celebration meant to show defiance of President Donald Trump's rollback of queer rights. The parade route passed within a few blocks of the White House grounds in one of the final main events of the weeks-long WorldPride celebration. Washington was chosen as the site for WorldPride before Trump won the 2024 election. Since returning to office in January, the Republican president has issued executive orders limiting transgender rights, banning transgender people from serving in the armed forces, and rescinding anti-discrimination policies for LGBTQ+ people as part of a campaign to repeal diversity, equity and inclusion programs.
