FILE--In this Tuesday, April 9, 2019, file photo, Wisconsin Democratic Gov. Tony Evers talks to reporters during a lame-duck legislative session in Madison, Wisconsin. Flying a gay pride rainbow flag over the Wisconsin state Capitol for the first time is drawing backlash from a conservative Republican lawmaker who said it was divisive. The flag flap Friday erupted after Evers ordered the raising of the flag to recognize June as "Pride Month." The move drew a fast backlash from state Rep. Scott Allen, who tweeted, "Is this any more appropriate than erecting the Christian flag over the Capitol?" Democrats praised the raising of the flag. (AP Photo/Scott Bauer, File)
