D.C. Mayor Adopts Similar Measure as Cuomo, Prohibits Government Travel to North Carolina
In a recent development, Washington D.C.'s Mayor Muriel Bowser has issued a ban on official government travel to North Carolina. This decision comes in response to the state's controversial anti-LGBT legislation.
The official order from Mayor Bowser can be found here. The ban is part of a growing movement of governments and cities taking action against similar legislation in various states.
Mayor Bowser's decision mirrors a similar move by New York's Governor Andrew Cuomo. The ban is a reflection of the increasing support for LGBT rights in the United States.
However, as of the current information available, no other government leaders or entities have been confirmed to have followed Mayor Bowser's lead in imposing similar travel bans. The search results focus mainly on Mayor Bowser's interactions with the Trump administration, local D.C. policy issues, and federal funding matters.
