#Murfreesboro, #Tennessee "must pay $500,000 as part of a settlement with the [ACLU] and other groups over an ordinance designed to ban #drag performances from taking place on public property." The city had falsely claimed that a 2022 Pride parade resulted in "sexualization of kids," then denied subsequent permits to #LGBTQ parades and events.

Murfreesboro has agreed to pay $500K of its taxpayers' money, repeal the bigoted ordinance, and approve future parade permits.
