So, I work for a government agency in California. Legislation was passed where the state will not reimburse underlying agencies for travel expenses to states that have law(s) on the book that "have the effect of voiding or repealing existing state or local protections against discrimination..."

Isn't this a breach of the interstate commerce clause?

interstate commerce clause?

I don't think so. If California told businesses based in California they couldn't do business with those states, then yes that would be. However, California itself can choose whom they do business with.

Since when has anyone paid any attention to little things like the constitution?
