In a statement posted on Twitter, Party City said it had “zero tolerance for this type of behavior & language,” adding that it had made the decision to “terminate” the woman’s employment.
“We condemn acts of racism, bigotry and hate,” the statement read. “Disregard for basic human rights of any kind has no place in our communities or country, and certainly not at Party City.”
