"Utah became the first state to prohibit LGBTQ+ pride flags from being flown at government buildings and schools in a move that also bans political flags such as those with President Donald Trump's slogan, "Make America Great Again."

Gov. Spencer Cox, a Republican, announced he was allowing the ban on unsanctioned flag displays to become law without his signature. Although he continues to have serious concerns about the policy, the governor chose not to reject the proposal because the Republican-controlled legislature would likely have overridden his veto.

The ban will go into effect on May 7, when state or local government buildings will be fined $500 a day for displaying any flag other than the American flag, the Utah state flag, military flags or a handful of others approved by lawmakers."

Here comes the Court challenges to this, I will be surprised if there are no law suits filled.

Seriously I can see the rule applying to government buildings but not schools if they are not government funded but private.

Why would you fly anything but our flag at a a government building?

Well Utah is more Republican and we are the opposite in California. To each their own.

The LGBTQ+ flag is not the state flag, is it hard to understand.

Is this localized to just Utah or have other US states moved to this position
