"This is not progress. This is a step backwards for my city. And that's very unfortunate," said Downey's first openly gay Mayor Mario Trujillo. "We oppose all promotion of LGBT, many residents have said that to us and they are not supportive of Downey pride either," said Arthur Schaper, field director for Mass Resistance.
Invitations were sent out for the pride flag raising ceremony scheduled for June 3rd, but that has now been canceled according to the mayor.
