Staten Island St. Patrick’s press conference.

On Sunday, the Gay Officers Action League stood with Carol Bullock, Executive Director of the Pride Center of Staten Island, KC Hankins and others who have been rejected from participating in the Staten Island St. Patrick's Day Parade because of their LGBTQIA Identies. We were proud to be joined by NYC Mayor Adams and Public Advocate Williams along with legendary Gay Irish Catholic Activist Brendan Faye and many other prominent leaders and activists.

No matter how you identify or who you love, we must ensure that NYC will always embrace you with open arms.
