The National Park Service has removed all mentions of the words "transgender" and "queer" from its web page dedicated to the Stonewall National Monument .

The site's web page now only makes reference to "LGB civil rights," omitting the T and Q representing transgender and queer people in the acronym.

New York Governor Kathy Hochul took to Twitter to call the move "cruel and pettty".
