"Mississippi state Senator Jeremy England has responded to comments about a photo of him in a pink Halloween costume. The Republican lawmaker says he intentionally wore what he considers a “very embarrassing” Halloween costume to raise money for breast cancer research.

In the original 2020 photo, England wears a shiny pink bodysuit with a fluffy pink tutu, sporting hair dyed pink. After it circulated, some critics even called England an anti-LGBTQ+ slur. England says that he was “being bullied” and was “receiving threats” in a Facebook post on Wednesday following the post’s spike in popularity."
