California Attorney General Rob Bonta has announced that the state will be restricting state-funded travel to Missouri, Nebraska and Wyoming due to recent anti-LGBTQ+ legislation in the states.
"These new laws enacted by Missouri, Nebraska, and Wyoming aren't just discriminatory, they constitute a clear case of government overreach - and it's an alarming trend we're witnessing across the country," said Attorney General Bonta.
In Nebraska, the "Let Them Grow Act" was signed into law in May. The bill makes it "a departure from the medical standard of care to provide gender-affirming care for someone who is 19 years old or younger except subject to rigorous criteria in regulations to be developed by the state's Chief Medical Officer."
The restrictions announced are in compliance with California Assembly Bill 1887, which requires the Attorney General to update the list of states that are subject to the law.
