The travel bans will only be lifted if the controversial law in Florida — or the order in Texas — is suspended or repealed.
The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors has voted to suspend all official travel to Texas and Florida after the two states took controversial steps targeting LGBTQ+ youth and their families.
In Texas, Gov. Greg Abbott ordered the state’s Department of Family and Protective Services to investigate gender affirming treatments as child abuse. An appellate courtsigned into law what critics call the “Don’t Say Gay” bill , which forbids instruction on sexual orientation and gender identity from kindergarten to third grade.
“This is no time to be enacting more legislation sort of designed to encourage more harassment and suffering and that's exactly what the states of Texas and Florida have done," said Supervisor Sheila Kuehl.
