‘Catholic’ Nancy Pelosi Marks César Chávez Day, Trans Visibility Day on Easter Sunday
Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) marked Transgender Visibility Day and César Chávez Day on Easter Sunday, though California state government offices will only observe Chávez Day on Monday, April 1.
Pelosi issued a tweet honoring the late farmworker union organizer and civil rights leader on Sunday, shortly after posting a message of Easter greetings to Christians nationwide.
Happy César Chávez Day! His legacy as a fearless and tireless champion for justice and dignity for all continues to inspire our nation.
Today, his fight for better pay and protections for workers lives on as we work to build and realize a better life for all Americans.

She then issued a tweet (or “post” on X) in honor of the Transgender Day of Visibility:
As transgender Americans continue to face hate and harassment, it is more important than ever to stand with the trans community.
On Trans Day of Visibility and every day, let us reaffirm our commitment to uplifting trans people and ensuring a future free of discrimination.
