The backlash to Indiana's new religious freedom law grew Monday, even as state lawmakers move to clarify the legislation, with Wash. Gov. Jay Inslee and Seattle Mayor Ed Murray banning government-funded travel to Indiana.
I want to know what non essential travel they were conducting to Indiana anyway
I think i'm seeing a pattern of states too far away to even conceivably have official travel to indiana
Which is undoubtedly due to the entire midwest and south being FUBAR
Yeah, makes me wonder why we aren't hosting conventions in seattle instead of going to them in Indy, I mean it's not like we squandered.... I mean invested taxpayer money while simultaniously jacking up traffic on I-5 permanently by building that giant convention center over the freeway in downtown or anything, and it sits empty half the year.... If inslee and Murray really wanted to send a message they'd offer to host every upcoming Indy convention

It is not a fight for freedom anymore, it is a witch hunt! If Jay Inslee and Ed Murray believe undermining Indiana's tourism industry is a good way to make local inhabitants more tolerant I've got bad news for them. They can disagree with Indiana's decision but they have no moral authority to "impose embargo" on these people.
RFRA was adopted by the legally elected representative of people of Indiana. It is democracy in action. If you want to live in a liberal utopia get out of America and let us make our choice.
That may be true, but a lot of people in Indiana do not support the RFRA. I for one, am ashamed of my state and my legislators. If it takes the actions of other states to force the IN General Assembly to reconsider, I wont be complaining one bit.

I am afraid you - as well as other citizens - will suffer from economic counteractions without any particular result. Anyway a swelling conflict between the states is not we are looking for.

Indiana Gov. Mike Pence aggressively defended Indiana's religious freedom law Tuesday but said he wants a bill on his desk by week's end "making it clear the law does not allow businesses the right to deny services to anyone."
"This law does not give anyone the right to discriminate," Pence said at a news conference. "But I can appreciate that that has become the perception."
He blamed "some on the left and, frankly, some in the national media" with forcing the state to consider clarifying the law.
I love it when people cry and whine when they are held accountable for their actions. Indiana and anyone else who tries to discriminate behind the shield of religion will find out just how expensive Bigotry is in America today.
