ITPost Falls, Idaho Mayor #RandyWestlund pushed a 4-2 city council vote to remove #Juneteenth as a city holiday and restore Columbus Day. His reasoning? That Juneteenth is “something nobody had heard of until five years ago and was pushed for political purposes.” One council member actually suggested keeping both holidays on the calendar, but the mayor shut it down. The NAACP has called the decision discriminatory.
Juneteenth has been a federal holiday since 2021. Columbus never even set foot on U.S. soil. But sure. 🙄
