California's attorney general announced Friday that he's imposing a ban on state-funded travel to Oklahoma in response to a new law that allows faith-based adoption agencies to deny placement services to same-sex parents. Eight other states have earlier been brought under California's so-called anti-discrimination travel ban.

"California will not use state resources to support states that pass discriminatory laws," Attorney General Xavier Becerra said Friday, according to the Los Angeles Times. "California taxpayers are taking a stand against bigotry and in support of those who would be harmed by this prejudiced policy."

The ban will take effect on June 22.

California prohibits state-funded travel also to Alabama, Mississippi, North Carolina, Kentucky, Tennessee, Texas, South Dakota and Kansas due to their laws that California deems "discriminatory."

"California is a state of inclusion and has long stood up against discrimination in any form, within our borders and beyond," Assemblyman Evan Low, a Democrat from Campbell and chair of the Legislature's LGBT Caucus, was quoted as saying.Sign up

"Every child deserves a loving, supportive family, and it's neither pro-child, nor pro-family, for Oklahoma to deny them one," said Rick Zbur, the executive director of Equality California. "California taxpayers won't subsidize Oklahoma's — or any state's — discriminatory policies."

More and more California is making itself an isolated pariah from the rest of the 49 states.

Apparently the California AG has no problem with spending money in states where taxes are discriminatory.  If he did, then California employees would be prohibited from spending money in their own state.  But states that prohibit men from using women's restrooms must pay. Typical socialists.  Only recognized groups that belong to the politburo can be "discriminated" against.  The people being fleeced by the party matter not.

Almost 20% of all states...probably is, less California.

I'm wondering how much CA State employees have been traveling to OK before this "ban?"

Wait... so states against same sex partners adopting should be punished now?  I'm thinking they should get a medal.  If the left had their way.... more stories like this would occur.... like the one where the lesbians drove off a cliff killing themselves AND all of their adopted kids.



And make no mistake.   If this fascist leftist Becerra could... he would ban travel 'of any kind' to areas he doesn't approve of.  That's how lefties roll.

A horrible, horrible story that never got much coverage from the Lamestream Media.

"California is a state of inclusion and has long stood up against discrimination in any form, within our borders and beyond"

And nothing says "inclusion" quite like placing a ban on others that hold a diverse viewpoint.

Then keep the California filth from Stanford, USC or UCLA from coming here in Texas to play football, baseball or basketball.

Let's have some reciprocity as well.

Good point.

Seems to me those entities are already banned by the CA laws that state no public employees can travel on official state business.  Aren't the coaches and trainers state employees?

Oklahomans are grateful.

Can we encourage the Calexit movement?  If they vote to secede, we can either let them go (on condition we get to keep some military bases, a free trade agreement, and the California peso pegged to the dollar for at least a decade, and border counties get to have plebiscites on remaining in the U.S. by joining a neighboring state), or we can refuse and when some hot-heads do something against Federal officers or facilities, give them the treatment the Confederacy got, complete with radical reconstruction.  Either way it's 54 'rat votes in the electoral college and a heavily 'rat congressional delegation gone (at least until reconstruction is complete).

Yeah, were headed for civil war. And they won't be content with letting red states be "red".

Gotta have more conditions, such as hanging a proportion of the US debt onto them, as well as them paying us for lands not owned by California but by the US.

We also discontinue any Medicare or SS revenue extraction as well as payments to current recipients.

Then we get the response to California bias:
