alifornia has issued a ban on state-funded and state-sponsored travel to four more states that it says have laws discriminating against LGBTQ people.
(Excerpt) Read more at cnn.com ...
"There are exceptions to the ban, however. For example, if travel is required to maintain grant funding or licensure, or for auditing and revenue collection purposes. And of course, anyone can travel to any of the states on the list in a personal capacity. "
I think this is unconstitutional. States can’t interfere with interstate commerce.
States should reciprocate and ban Californians. Arrest their college and professional coaches, and forfeit their games when they come to town.
Maybe soon all 57 states will be on the list..... (snicker)
Response: we all go to these banned states on vacation and avoid Ca and CA businesses. May the queers continue to spread their diseases in CA.
The left loves “travel bans” when it fits their agenda.
“And of course, anyone can travel to any of the states on the list in a personal capacity. “
Scary that they would even feel the need state this.

So what?
I officially ban any and all californicate citizens, esp my family who lives there, from my property.
They are trying to avoid getting caught up in civil law suits.
Given the fact that California can’t even control their boarders.
This is more symbolic. Nevertheless, it should be challenged in Court as illegal.
Reciprocation is the right approach and it should be a coalition of the roughly 35 red states. Banning travel by state employees (including university employees) to California will effectively mean that no academic conferences or national level meetings can be held in California from now on. That would end this fascism from California quickly.
All red states need to act to do this now, regardless of what their individual laws are. If California gets away with this, they will eventually try to dictate policy to all 49 of their neighbors in every area.
Just another way that intolerant liberals are destroying the basic civility and live-and-let-live attitude that had been the strength of this nation since its inception.
If they were serious they would ban air travel to or from any of these states from using any airport that gets any funding from California state funds.
“And of course, anyone can travel to any of the states on the list in a personal capacity. “
It’s ok with me if the State of California should ban Californian’s form traveling to Texas in a personal capacity as well....
Jokes aside, it’s getting difficult to tell leftist enclaves and Sharia states like Saudi Arabia apart, so merciless is their enforcement of ideology.
I’m sure the 9th circuit will uphold this travel ban.
Oh just go all in. Secession! Now!
Didnt the nuts do this sometime before?
Not engaging in commerce among the States though is not interstate commerce.
The Constitution doesn’t grant the federal power to regulate things that affect commerce among the several States but are not interstate commerce themselves: like growing your own feed stock or engaging in commerce within a state.
That the federal does so is an artifact of FDR era lawlessness. High handed lawlessness at that.
“And of course, anyone can travel to any of the states on the list in a personal capacity. “
For now...
Sounds good: let’s bitch-slap California’s sorry ass.
