The City of Rochester has also banned city-funded travel for city employees. "Rochester, New York has long been the 'Hometown of Equality' in America," said Mayor Lovely Warren. "As the home of Susan B. Anthony and Frederick Douglas, Rochester has been a stalwart for freedom and a beacon of progress for those seeking justice and equality. I cannot support the use of our residents' tax dollars to fund travel to states who adopt policies that fly directly in the face of what our community has always stood for."
