Braun’s Nuclear Family Month Proclamation Draws Mixed Reaction in Indiana

Republican governors in four red states are promoting traditional family values with proclamations that critics say counter LGBTQ+ Pride Month.

  • On Monday, Indiana Governor Mike Braun proclaimed June as Nuclear Family Month, recognizing the role of families as America approaches its 250th anniversary.
  • Beyond Indiana, GOP Governor Bill Lee of Tennessee signed a resolution declaring June Nuclear Family Month, while Republican Governor Sarah Sanders designated the month Fidelity Month in Arkansas.
  • Braun's proclamation defines the nuclear family as 'one husband, one wife, and any biological, adopted, or fostered children,' citing it as God's design for the family structure.
  • Pride Lafayette issued a statement criticizing Braun, Governor Micah Beckwith, and Attorney General Todd Rokita, while some Hoosiers questioned the timing and message of the proclamation.
  • Critics describe these declarations as 'counter-programming Pride Month,' with The New Republic calling the move a 'direct attack on LGBTQ Pride and everything it's achieved.
