Log Cabin Republicans President Charles Moran issued the following statement on the selection of Tim Walz as Kamala Harris’ vice presidential nominee:

Kamala Harris’ selection of Tim Walz means Harris plans to put the destructive Biden-Harris policies of the last four years on steroids. From the economy and immigration to crime and public safety, Tim Walz is on the wrong side of the issues important to voters in the LGBT community. Walz is an enthusiastic cheerleader for free college for illegal immigrants, open borders, and pro-crime policies that undermine public safety. Most alarmingly, Walz has embraced the radical Left’s insane theories on sex and gender. He signed a bill allowing the State to take young children away from their parents if they don’t let them undergo dangerous and life-altering surgeries. He’s a cheerleader for Kamala Harris war on Title IX and destruction of women’s sports. He supports pushing sexualized gender-theory curriculum to kindergarteners in classrooms. He even signed a bill putting tampons in boys school bathrooms. Make no mistake, despite what the media will say, there is nothing pro-LGBT or pro-family about any of this. A Harris- Walz Administration would be an absolute disaster for children, families, and communities across America, and the Log Cabin Republicans remain committed to doing everything we can to defeat the most radically liberal ticket in our nation’s history.
