The cultural divide in America appears to have heightened in recent years with so-called Red and Blue states at loggerheads over many of the social issues debated in legislatures across the nation and prominently featured in the media almost daily. And apparently it was not enough for some state and city officials to concern themselves with those issues within their jurisdictions. California in particular saw it necessary to act in order to influence policy in other states—states certainly more conservative than the Golden State.
Come to think of it, aren’t all states more Conservative than The Golden State? Apologies–I digress.
In 2016, primarily as a reaction to the state of North Carolina enacting controversial policy that prevented individuals from using restrooms and locker facilities that aligned with their particular gender identity, California passed AB 1887 which prevented California officials from traveling at taxpayer cost to any state that: “has enacted a law that voids or repeals, or has the effect of voiding or repealing, existing state or local protections against discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression.”
