Pierce County Councilmember Amy Cruver says she will refuse to sit in the county's council chambers while a pride flag flies overhead.
Pierce County Council member Amy Cruver has announced she is refusing to sit in the county’s council chambers while a Pride Flag flies overhead, calling it a distraction that interferes with her ability to engage in meetings.
Following Cruver’s comments, the chambers fell silent for approximately 10 seconds before Council Chair Ryan Mello said he is “quite pleased” the council has decided to raise a symbol of inclusion, love and welcoming for all people in our community. While it’s the first year the Pride flag has adorned the roof of the council chambers, it is the fourth consecutive year Pierce County has signed a Pride Proclamation.
