With the progress Pride flag now on display at Albany City Hall, city leaders adopted a policy on Wednesday, June 14 in anticipation of future requests to fly other flags on the building. In city halls across the United States, there are discussions about raising the Pride flag. In Sarasota, Florida, for example, city leaders unanimously voted to raise the flag, while Huntington Beach, California decided end a three-year tradition of flying the flag during Pride month. In Los Angeles, a Pride flag was displayed on a county building for the first time, and in Dallas the banner is waving for the third consecutive year.
