The Biden White House social media account "La Casa Blanca" did not post anything related to "Transgender Day of Visibility" while the English White House account on X made a post on Easter to declare the LGBTQ recognition day.
Over the weekend, the Biden administration faced backlash for issuing a proclamation for March 31 as "Transgender Day of Visibility" when the holiest Christian holiday, Easter Sunday, fell on the same day. A proclamation from Biden was issued about March 31 on Good Friday that read, "By virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim March 31, 2024, as Transgender Day of Visibility." The day was established in 2009 and Biden has proclaimed it repeatedly during his administration.
On Easter Sunday, Biden's social media accounts made several different posts about both Easter and "Transgender Day of Visibility." One account, that was lacking any post related to the LGBTQ holiday, however, was the Spanish iteration of the White House account, "La Casa Blanca."
