Good afternoon,
Please don't allow Chick-fil-A to open a restaurant in Palm Springs. The LGBTQ+ community
has long been a vital part of Palm Springs and the Coachella Valley. The opening of a well-
known anti-LGBTQ+ business in one of the queerest places in the nation, would be a slap in
the face to residents and visitors alike. In the current political climate, which gets more
dangerous for queer people every day, we do not need a symbol of hate in such a queer-
welcoming place.
I'm sure you can find another tenant for that space which will be much less offensive to the
diverse and inclusive population of the valley. Please do so.
Thank you,
Steven Caristo
