Fact Check: Did Joe Biden Create Transgender Day of Visibility on Easter?

President Joe Biden earned the ire of conservatives and a famous transgender woman, Caitlyn Jenner, when he issued a proclamation recognizing the Transgender Day of Visibility (TDoV).

"Today, we send a message to all transgender Americans: You are loved. You are heard. You are understood. You belong. You are America, and my entire Administration and I have your back," the president said in a statement released on Friday.

The message angered a number of conservatives as TDoV fell on March 31, the same day as the heterodox Christian Easter. Orthodox Easter this year falls on May 5.

A number of conservatives said that Biden had hijacked a holy holiday to support transgender people.
