Travis County raises flag for Pride Month
Wednesday, June 7, 2023 by Tai Moses
It’s Pride Month, and among the area’s many other planned events and parades, Travis County will be hoisting a colorful rainbow pride flag. As Travis County Judge Andy Brown wrote in his newsletter, “we recognize that our diversity and inclusiveness make us a stronger community. At a time when families are being attacked for expressing who they are, this tradition of raising the Pride flag at Travis County is a beacon to our LGBTQIA+ community – you are welcomed here and you are loved.” The entire community is invited to join members of the Commissioners Court, LGBTQ leaders and Travis County staffers for the flag-raising ceremony at noon on Tuesday, June 13, at the Travis County Administration Building, 700 Lavaca St. RSVP here.
