Hyatt Hotels responded to calls for a boycott over hosting the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in Orlando, Florida, saying it takes “pride in operating a highly inclusive environment.”

“We take pride in operating a highly inclusive environment and we believe that the facilitation of gatherings is a central element of what we do as a hospitality company,” a spokesperson for the Hyatt Regency Orlando in Florida told news outlets. CPAC is slated to end on Sunday, Feb. 28, after hosting its annual gathering of conservative political activists, speakers, students, and elected officials.
