This year is the first time the Progress Pride Flag will be flown. The Rainbow Pride Flag was first flown over the Wisconsin State Capitol in 2019 to send a message that Wisconsin is a welcoming and inclusive place for all. As long as I am governor, we will continue the fight to protect, support, and celebrate LGBTQ kids and the entire LGBTQ community,” said Gov.
It’s why I will always fight to protect them. And that’s why I will always stand with them. “LGBTQ kids deserve our love and respect and support just like any other kid. The flag will fly over the East Wing of the State Capitol beginning noon on June 1 and ending at sunset on June 30.
To commemorate, Governor Evers signed an Executive Order today, declaring that the Progress Pride Flag be raised over the Wisconsin State Capitol during the month of June.
