California bans state travel to Florida and four other states over LGBTQ+ laws
Link
California added five states, including Florida, to its list of places where state-funded travel is banned because of laws that discriminate against members of the LGBTQ+ community.
California’s attorney general, Rob Bonta, on Monday added Florida, Arkansas, Montana, North Dakota and West Virginia to the list that now has 17 states where state employee travel is forbidden except under limited circumstances.
“Make no mistake: we’re in the midst of an unprecedented wave of bigotry and discrimination in this country, and the state of California is not going to support it,” Bonta said.

Good for them. It's about time these backwards states get called out for their disgusting laws.

I get why they are doing it but what outcome are they expecting?

I can't imagine many state employees need to travel to Florida for work so I'm guessing it's mainly about attention to the issues.
