"White House Easter Announcement Sparks Controversy Over Transgender Day of Visibility"
TL;DR
Donald Trump and his allies criticized President Biden for acknowledging Transgender Day of Visibility on Easter Sunday, falsely claiming that Biden prohibited children from submitting religious egg designs to a White House Easter art contest. They accused the White House of betraying Easter's central tenet and labeled the coincidence as an attack on Easter. Biden, a devout Catholic, celebrated Easter observances and renewed his commitment to work for peace and dignity for all people.
