California added an eleventh state to its travel blacklist on Friday, banning state-sponsored travel to Iowa over that state’s refusal to cover gender-transition surgeries under its Medicaid program.California attorney general Xavier Becerra announced the decision to add Iowa to the travel-ban list, which takes effect October 4 and means public employees and college students will not be able to travel to Iowa on the taxpayer’s dime.

Just out of curiosity why is Iowa choosing not to spend taxpayer monies on the gender gender blender stupid? I'm having a hard time seeing the issue. I'd be PO'd if my tax dollars were spent on that instead of feeding the homeless, providing Medicare for someone truly indigent, paving the roads so emergency services have adequate transport surfaces or nearly anything else that is actually a need instead of a want.
