Penn. Democrat plans to defy Republican-backed law banning his weed and LGBTQ rights flags

Pennsylvania’s Democratic Lt. Gov. says he plans to continue defying an order from the state’s GOP-controlled legislature banning unauthorized flags on federal grounds.

Pro-marijuana legalization and pride flags were removed from John Fetterman‘s office balcony this week, but he quickly replaced them, The Hill reports. The legislature in November included in its budget legislation a provision banning the display of non-approved flags.
