This town is Florida’s first LGBTQ+ sanctuary city

A south Florida town has become the first in the state to formally declare itself an LGBTQ+ sanctuary city.

In a Lake Worth Beach city commission meeting Tuesday, members voted unanimously in favor of the decision, according to a report from NBC affiliate WPTV.

City council members and advocates cited concerns from the community – particularly from parents, educators and students – regarding recently enacted legislation aimed at LGBTQ+ people.

The expanded Parental Rights in Education law, which took effect in June, further limits the discussion of gender identity and sexual orientation in Florida classrooms. The restrictions originally went up to third grade, but now the law covers pre-K through eighth grade.

Lake Worth Beach Mayor Betty Resch vowed to work with the city council to create a plan of action supporting LGBTQ+ people and helping them feel safe.

“Feeling safe” to them means talking dirty to children.

Why does a law concerning school kids have anything to do with what adults do in their private lives???

They better clearly define what sanctuary city means in this case. I read here earlier that sanctuary cities all over our country are now saying that the term “sanctuary city” was meant to only identify with illegal aliens coming into this country, not that they would actually be welcome to live in one.

Wouldn’t want to live within those city boundaries no more.
It’ll be non-stop alphabet invasion moving forward.

Seems like Lake Worth Beach needs frequent parades of good old boys, driving smoke billowing pickup trucks, flying American flags, and blaring southern rock to put the fear of God into these faggot lovers.

LGBTQ+ sanctuary city for illegal aliens, aka LGBTQ+ ‘migrants’.

Stay away from the bathrooms when you visit there and move your kids away.

This town is Florida’s first LGBTQ+ sanctuary city

Someday, a designated international tourist attraction.

With sanctuary cities they were basically violating the law by ignoring people who committed illegal acts to live in their communities

It’s not a crime to be LGBTQ so long as thay don’t ignore illegal acts by these people, I say more power to them, attract the entire LGBTQ community to their communities and leave fewer in other areas, get them to congregate in one place
