Democrat VP nominee Tim Walz can’t seem to stop lying when it comes to the state of Nebraska.
The Gateway Pundit reported that Walz, who was born and raised in Nebraska and enlisted in the Nebraska National Guard, falsely claimed he had been named “Outstanding Young Nebraskan” by the Nebraska Chamber of Congress and was forced to walk back the claim.
Now, Walz is bizarrely claiming that it is currently illegal to be gay in the Cornhusker state.
During remarks as the headliner at the national dinner for the Human Rights Campaign, Walz said, “Think about this. When I was a kid growing up in Nebraska, being gay was illegal.”
“It’s still technically illegal.”
Not only is being gay in Nebraska legal, the state has a multitude of protections in place that prohibit discrimination for sexual orientation.
Further, same-sex marriage has been legal in Nebraska since June 26, 2015, following the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling in Obergefell v. Hodges.
