Residents of Woodbury may want to follow a Minnesota legislative proposal concerning politicians fume after target pulls some pride merch.
Boycotting is now a sign of how "dangerous these white Christian nationalists and far-right groups have gotten," according to some DFL politicians.
“I’m pissed they removed some of their Pride merch,” said Sen.
Erin Maye Quade, DFL-Apple Valley, calling the development “a reflection of how damn dangerous these white Christian nationalists and far-right groups have gotten.” As a queer person in MN (where @Target is HQ’d), I’m pissed they removed of some of their #Pride merch.
As a former in-store team member, I understand doing so for the safety of staff.
The problem isn’t Target, it’s the dangerous, intensifying anti-LGBTQ hate movement.
— Erin Maye Quade (@ErinMayeQuade) May 25, 2023 Target has faced backlash after its latest Pride line was released in stores, featuring items geared towards babies and children.
Many conservative commentators called for a boycott of Target, similar to the boycott of Anheuser-Busch products following the company’s partnership with a transgender influencer.
As the measure advances, residents of Woodbury can follow amendments and contact Amanda H. Hemmingsen-Jaeger regarding the final language.
