A conservative Christian man is suing Los Angeles County and the L.A. Department of Public Works for making him come to work during Pride Month.
Department of Public Works employee Eric Batman claims that having to see a Progress Pride flag flying outside the departments Alhambra, California, headquarters during the month of June effectively forces him to celebrate, recognize, and solemnize conduct and actions that he views as sin in conflict with his sincerely held Christian religious beliefs, according to a lawsuit filed in March by anti-LGBTQ+ evangelical nonprofit the Liberty Counsel.
As the complaint notes, Batman has worked for the department for 24 years, and at its Alhambra headquarters since 2003. Since 2023, L.A. County has required all county departments to fly the Progress Pride flag during the month of June.
In 2024 and 2025, Batman formally requested a religious accommodation allowing him to work remotely in June, claiming that requiring him to be present in the office for the Countys explicit and overt celebration of so-called Pride Month conflicts with his Christian beliefs. Both requests were denied, as were follow-up grievance forms Batman filed with the Department of Employee Relations.
