The amusement park announced on Friday that it will <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/state-dept-doubles-down-on-spending-20k-of-taxpayer-money-to-fund-drag-shows-in-ecuador\/\" title=\"State Dept.

But Six Flags is not alone in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/expressive-individualism-theologian-carl-trueman-explains-why-public-high-schools-keep-hosting-drag-shows\/\" title=\"\u2018Expressive Individualism\u2019: Theologian Carl Trueman Explains Why Public High Schools Keep Hosting Drag Shows\">hosting drag shows<\/a> for Pride Month. The Bay Area Six Flags location and Six Flags St. Louis are also featuring drag shows.<\/p>\n<h3>Controversy and Pushback<\/h3>\n<p>As noted by ABC, Texas lawmakers have been trying to limit attendance by children at drag queen shows and have passed a law to limit public performances of sexual conduct. The bill is expected to be signed by Texas Gov. Greg Abbott.<\/p>\n<p>Republican state Sen. Bryan Hughes celebrated the victory in a May 29 Twitter post, saying, &#8220;These shows are indisputably inappropriate for minors, and we will not allow children to be sexualized nor preyed upon in Texas.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has also signed a bill that cracks down on the attendance of children at drag shows by giving the state the right to revoke the food and beverage licenses of establishments that let kids in to see drag shows.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the controversy, Six Flags over Texas is standing by its decision to host drag shows for Pride Month. So, get ready for Six Drags over Texas and enjoy the show!<\/p>\n<h3>Twitter Reactions<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Six Flags Over Texas wants to groom your kids.
