The following sentences in the letter were boldfaced:

President Trump, you are not welcome in Pittsburgh until you fully denounce white nationalism.

President Trump, you are not welcome in Pittsburgh until you stop targeting and endangering all minorities.

President Trump, you are not welcome in Pittsburgh until you cease your assault on immigrants and refugees.

President Trump, you are not welcome in Pittsburgh until you commit yourself to compassionate, democratic policies that recognize the dignity of all of us.
