California bars state-funded travel to 5 more states over LGBT laws; 17 now banned
(Worthy News) – California added Florida, Arkansas, Montana, North Dakota and West Virginia to its list of states banned from state-funded, state-sponsored travel due to a wave recently passed legislation that California Democrats deems “discriminatory” toward LGBT individuals.
As a result of the change, California state travel will be restricted to 17 states due to a difference in policies related to LGBT discrimination.
The California Attorney General’s Office alleges the five newly added states to the state-funded travel ban are a “part of a recent, dangerous wave of discriminatory new bills signed into law” that “directly work to ban transgender youth from playing sports, block access to life-saving care or otherwise limit the rights of members of the LGBTQ+ community.” [ Source: Christian Post (Read More…) ]
