The White House is blaming "misinformation" for the outrage that ensued after it observed Transgender Day of Visibility, which fell on the same day as Easter this year.
International Transgender Day of Visibility has been observed on March 31 since 2009, and President Joe Biden has released a proclamation every year he has been in office for the day. This year is the first that it fell on Easter.
"We’ve been hearing out there, a lot of misinformation done on purpose," White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters Monday.
