“Top North Dakota Republican officials on Monday disavowed an anti-LGBT resolution that was passed by hundreds of the party’s delegates and denounced by the state’s GOP governor” the AP reports.
“State Republican Chairman Rick Berg said the party’s executive committee voted to disavow the resolution’s ‘harmful and divisive language.'”
“‘North Dakota Republicans welcome all those who support less government and greater freedom. As leaders of the State Party, we would like to offer a sincere apology for the inclusion of these unacceptable, hurtful sentiments as part of our official business,’ Berg, a former U.S. representative, said in a statement.”
