Biden Administration Criticized for Promoting Pansexual and Panromantic Pride Day

The Department of Health and Human Services' social media post celebrating the LGBTQ+ observance draws backlash from conservatives anticipating the incoming Trump administration.

  • The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) marked Pansexual and Panromantic Pride Day with a social media post advocating for inclusivity and self-expression.
  • The post received significant criticism from conservative figures and Republican lawmakers, who questioned the administration's priorities.
  • Prominent voices like Stephen Miller, Elon Musk, and Senator-elect Jim Banks expressed disapproval, with some anticipating policy changes under the incoming Trump administration.
  • Critics, including tech entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, argued that the HHS should focus on healthcare costs and outcomes rather than LGBTQ+ observances.
  • The Trump administration, set to take office in January, has signaled plans to reform federal agencies and reduce what it views as politically motivated initiatives.
