Biden’s $1.7 trillion spending bill was released Wednesday morning, and a whopping $7.5 million has been earmarked for LGBTQ projects such as "LGBTQIA+ Pride Centers" and an "American LGBTQ+ Museum in New York City."
The 4,155-page document outlines how government operations will be funded through Sept 2023 and the Heritage Foundation has provided a list of many of the "woke priorities" contained within it.
$1.2 million is earmarked for LGBTQIA+ Pride Centers, $3 million for the American LGBTQ+ Museum in New York City, and $856k for the "LGBT Center" in New York.
Then there’s $750k for "LGBT and Gender Non-Conforming housing" in Albany, New York, and another $750k for the "TransLatin@ Coalition" in Los Angeles, to provide “workforce development programs and supportive services for Transgender and Gender nonconforming and Intersex immigrant women
Despite its hefty size and price tag, lawmakers are hoping to rush it through both chambers of Congress by Thursday so that it will be ready for President Biden to sign on Friday, according to a report by Reason.
There is a further $1 million going to Zora’s House in Ohio, a "coworking and community space" for "women and gender-expansive people of color," and $2 million for the "Great Blacks in Wax" museum in Baltimore.
Other "woke priorities" include $1.2 million for "services for DACA recipients" at San Diego Community College, which the Heritage Foundation describes as "helping illegal aliens with taxpayer funds," and $477k for the Equity Institute in RI which the Heritage Foundation believes will be used to "indoctrinate teachers with 'antiracism virtual labs'."
