The cities approved several new flags after Utah and Idaho passed laws barring unofficial flags from being displayed on government property.

The Boise City Council made the Pride flag a city flag Tuesday to get around a new state law. The Legislature earlier this year banned most flags from flying on government property, but left an exception for “the official flag of a governmental entity.

The Boise City Council voted to add the LGBTQ+ Pride Flag to the roster of official city flags. The motion passed with five councilors voting in favor and one against. The vote comes after a public feud between Boise Mayor Lauren McLean and Idaho's Attorney General Raul Labrador over a newly passed Idaho law.
