Biden Denies Proclaiming Easter Sunday As ‘Transgender Day Of Visibility’ Despite His Signature

President Joe Biden on Monday said he did not declare Easter Sunday the Transgender Day of Visibility and slammed Speaker Mike Johnson as being 'thoroughly uninformed' for accusing him of doing so.

Biden sparked a torrent of criticism from conservatives over the weekend after issuing a proclamation recognizing the day to celebrate the lives and contributions of trans people.

Johnson, former President Donald Trump and many other Republicans slammed Biden, with the speaker calling the president's move 'outrageous and abhorrent.'

However, when asked on Monday if he had named Easter the Transgender Day of Visibility, Biden said: 'I didn't do that.'
