Any money raised over our set goal of $2,500 will go toward our fall October LGBTA+ History Month Proclamation Campaign.” The objective, they said, is” “to encourage members of the Lubbock City Council to issue an Official Proclamation declaring June as Pride Month, to recognize the broad cultural and entrepreneurial contributions of the LGBTQ+ community to the city of Lubbock and to declare that Lubbock is a city that welcomes all. #HateIsNotALubbockValue.” For more information, visit the OUTwestLubbock.org. — Tammye Nash OUTwest Lubbock launches campaign to get Pride Month declaration was first posted on May 10, 2024 at 12:20 pm.©2021 "Dallas Voice".
