Trevor Lee is an American politician. He serves as a Republican member for the 16th district of the Utah House of Representatives.[2][3]
He has few legislative acts to his name but has worked to ban fluoride[4] (in spite of it leading to a reduction of 25% of tooth decay) and is working on a piece of legislation that would allow Nazi and Confederate flags to be displayed in Utah classrooms, while allowing parents to sue school districts if Pride (rainbow flags) were to be displayed.[5][6] Ostensibly, this is under the guise of using said flags as "educational" and historical, however the Pride flag has been excluded, in spite of the historical significance of the Gay Pride movement and Stonewall.[7]
In 2022, it was uncovered that Lee was behind a Twitter amount that spread homophobic, racist, and misogynistic views. (7)
