West Hollywood responded with a statement Tuesday that emphasized the city's LGBTQ history, saying the city embraces 'Pride each and every day, year-round.' It is a major economic driver for local bars, nightclubs, restaurants and other businesses, many of which have been hard-hit by the coronavirus pandemic of late. LA Pride, which has taken place in West Hollywood every summer since 1979, draws hundreds of thousands of people to the city each year.
