"This time last year, members of the Burke family caused chaos in Washington DC as they tried to highlight the case of sacked anti-transgender teacher Enoch Burke. Ammi, Isaac and their mother, Martina, were removed from the Ireland Funds gala dinner venue, where Taoiseach Micheál Martin was due to speak during his St Patrick's Day trip to the US, after interrupting proceedings."
Enoch Burke's family members, including his mother Martina and sister Ammi, face imprisonment at Mountjoy Female Prison. This development follows their previous activism regarding Burke's dismissal as a teacher over his stance on transgender issues. The family previously disrupted an Ireland Funds gala dinner in Washington DC during the Taoiseach's St Patrick's Day visit to the United States, where they were removed from the venue while attempting to draw attention to Burke's employment case.
