BISMARCK, N.D. – North Dakota’s Republican governor has denounced an anti-LGBTQ resolution that was passed by hundreds of delegates at his party’s recent state convention, calling it insulting and divisive.
Gov. Doug Burgum issued a statement blasting the resolution, which includes the assertion that many “LGBT practices are unhealthy and dangerous.”
The state GOP’s executive director, Corby Kemmer, issued a statement apologizing for the language in that resolution and promising it would be changed at a future meeting.
The party opted to hold its convention in-person last Friday and Saturday, and the state Health Department sent a letter to convention-goers on saying that one of the attendees had tested positive for the coronavirus.
