NPR reported a significant decline in corporate sponsorships for Pride Month events, with one-third of Fortune 1000 companies planning to decrease their support this year. Federal contractors are reportedly distancing themselves from Pride celebrations due to the Trump administration's increased regulation of DEI initiatives in the private sector. In Washington D.C., the Gay Men's Chorus had a performance postponed at the Kennedy Center, which they attributed to political "chilling effects" following the President's takeover of the institution.
