Trump administration agrees to keep flying Pride flag at Stonewall monument

The Trump administration agreed to continue flying a rainbow Pride flag at the Stonewall national monument, reversing its earlier decision to remove the banner in February. This agreement emerged as the government seeks to settle a lawsuit initiated by LGBTQ+ and historic preservation groups who challenged the flag's removal. The decision means the Pride flag will remain a visible symbol at the monument, which commemorates the 1969 Stonewall Uprising, a pivotal event in the LGBTQ+ rights movement. A judge must still approve the settlement for it to become final.
