Several AG offices to step in and respond to push back from Target’s Pride collection

In a letter sent to Target CEO Brian Cornell by Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison and 14 other attorneys general, the group says they “stand ready to help address any anti-LGBTQIA+ threats and harassment in Target stores.”

The Minnesota-based company was criticized for some items the store was carrying for Pride month by several conservative groups. The company pulled some items from stores after employees received threats.
