President Biden’s move sparked an outpouring of criticism among conservatives.

President Joe Biden has declared March 31, 2024, which falls on Easter Sunday, as “Transgender Day of Visibility,” sparking uproar among conservatives and scathing criticism from former President Donald Trump, who demanded that the president apologize to millions of Christians in the United States.

President Biden said in the March 29 proclamation that his administration wanted to send a message that transgender people are part of American society, while boasting of appointing transgender individuals to leadership positions in his administration and ending a ban that prohibited them from serving openly in the military.

He also touted his administration’s efforts to make public services more accessible for transgender Americans, including making official documents like passports more “inclusive” by including an X as the gender marker.

President Biden also urged Congress to pass the Equality Act in order to codify civil rights protections for all LGBT and transgender Americans, while officially declaring this coming Easter Sunday as “Transgender Day of Visibility.”

The move sparked an outpouring of criticism among conservatives, including from the Trump campaign, which also objected to the White House’s instructions for an Easter egg art design competition for children that ban submissions with religious symbols or “overtly religious themes.”

“It is appalling and insulting that Joe Biden’s White House prohibited children from submitting religious egg designs for their Easter Art Event, and formally proclaimed Easter Sunday as ‘Trans Day of Visibility,’” Trump campaign spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt said in a statement.

“Sadly, these are just two more examples of the Biden Administration’s years-long assault on the Christian faith. We call on Joe Biden’s failing campaign and White House to issue an apology to the millions of Catholics and Christians across America who believe tomorrow is for one celebration only—the resurrection of Jesus Christ,” she added.

The White House did not respond to a request for comment.

‘Easter Sunday Is Being Replaced’

Much of the criticism of the president’s proclamation centered on the fact that March 31, 2024, falls on Easter Sunday, which is one of the most important Christian religious holidays.
