California bans state travel to Texas

Davetex · Jun 23, 2017

What’s silly here is that California already banned all out-of-state travel by their state employees back in 2011. This act by Jerry Brown was just a bunch of SJW virtue-signaling.

There will of course be an exception list a mile long to this "ban". I doubt your job is in jeopardy.

Nah, I don't think it is. There's a chain of plausible deniability

That was an executive order, could it have been reversed since 2011?

Apparently the state legislature enacted the law banning certain states for having discriminatory laws in Sept 2016

Not sure if it was reversed.

I love the fact that California thinks it mete and right to try to force other states to toe the line that they try to dictate. Piss off!

I think that they might believe the old adage "As California goes, so goes the nation".

A drowning man sometimes takes the rescuer with him.

It's only for the state government types on the state dime. Wish it applies to everyone in the state.

Perhaps we need to rethink which border that wall needs to be constructed on.

I think it's a great thing they are doing in the hopes many of the liberals of this state get so disgusted they move back.

State employees should stay in their state anyway. But i guess trip to communist China remain ok.

So if EPA Reg9 holds a conference relative to a CA employee's job in one of the other two states, they shouldn't attend? And don't forget interstate collegiate sports.

If California gets all butt hurt over other states laws, I guess what you mention isn't high on their priority list.

No, it affects more than the "state government types". It affects every public university in the State of California in that it bars their athletic teams from traveling to play in athletic contests or even championships/bowl games to any of the States named in the ban. Private university's teams traveling on their own dime are not affected.

Cali thinks the EPA is low priority? :eek:

Shirley you jest.

I did not say that. I think "Cali" (Government) thinks themselves all high and mighty that all states should follow suit. If they call a ban on travel to any other state or states, their priority doesn't extend to what may happen in those states.

And surely my name isn't Shirley.

To All,

Personally, I'd like to see TX pass more laws that would keep about 99% of Californians out of our state. = I was once stationed out there with the Army at MTMC in San Pedro & I've not lost a single thing out there, that isn't available elsewhere.
(Any State that would elect Feinstein, Boxer & Brown is NO place that I'd want to be.)

yours, satx

Well if it's any consolation, I have banned myself from travel to California.

What a stroke of good luck! California finally acknowledged that they are unworthy to step on the hallowed ground of Texas!
