The National LGBTQ Task Force Action Fund is condemning Republican
presidential candidate Donald Trump’s selection of Governor Mike Pence
of Indiana as his vice presidential running mate.
“In selecting Mike Pence, Donald Trump has picked a vice-presidential
running mate who is best-known for a law that was so extremely
anti-LGBTQ that businesses, organizations and major events threatened to
flee Indiana in droves. One
can only imagine what sort of impact this type of person might have on
the lives of LGBTQ people across the country, and on our nation's
economy and future,” said Russell Roybal, Deputy Executive Director,
National LGBTQ Task Force Action Fund.
