Mike Pence’s New Neighbors Greet Him with Rainbow-Colored Flags

HeadlineDec 05, 2016

And some residents of the Chevy Chase neighborhood in Washington, D.C., are welcoming their newest neighbor, Vice President-elect Mike Pence, by hanging rainbow-colored flags from their homes. Pence is living in the neighborhood until Inauguration Day.

Allison Fenn: “Given the governor’s stance on gay rights issues, it seemed like a really crucial message to make that everyone needs to be supported rather than feel threatened. And I think we have a fundamental disagreement with his stand on this and just want to not only bring it to his attention, but to make others feel supported who might otherwise feel threatened.”
