Stonewall Pride flag restored

In a major concession to the LGBTQ+ community, the federal government will once again fly the Pride flag at the historic site of the modern gay rights movement.

The decision follows a wave of public outrage and legal action led by groups who saw the flag's removal as a targeted affront to their visibility.

Court documents filed on Monday confirm the administration will maintain the flag on a federal flagpole at the monument.

Activists have hailed the move as a significant victory for heritage and civil rights protection.
