- Whassa matter with you ignorant, anti-LGBTQ Iowans?
- Now you’ve really made California mad at you !
Not only have you Iowans been willing to discriminate against an upstanding segment of the “LGBTQ community” but apparently you can be justifiably accused of “child abuse” as a state. You want that?
When you refuse to pay for the surgery to relieve the emotional pain of, say a 6 year old, who realizes that his/her/they’s (?) parents mistakenly ‘assigned’ them the wrong gender…why, that’s child abuse in the extreme, if we correctly interpret the views and actions of the virtuous state of California! DLH
According to Fox News via American Thinker:
California announced last week that it has added Iowa to the list of states on its ever-expanding “travel ban” list because of that state’s new prohibition against funding gender-transition surgeries under Medicaid.
The announcement by state Attorney General Xavier Becerra means that as of Oct. 4, California will no longer offer taxpayer-funded trips to Iowa for any public employee or student at a state-run university.
Becerra’s authority came from a 2016 California law signed by then-Gov. Jerry Brown that bars state-funded travel to other states that undercut LGBT rights. The blacklist already included Alabama, Kentucky, North Carolina, Texas, Oklahoma and Mississippi.
California’s state government, see, isn’t just about virtue-signaling, it’s also about controlling others. If a rival state does what California does, then fine, interstate commerce can flourish. If it doesn’t, especially if it is smaller….
That’ll go down real good with the Iowans who had been leaning against Trump and hearing the siren call of the Democrats.
- OK with us though — didn’t want any more Californication anyway
- Already have little Berkley and plenty of liberal Nob Hills
