Shorter @NYGovCuomo: "We were wasting tax dollars on non-essential travel to Indiana."

New York Governor Andrew Cuomo is a man of action, you guys. And today, he’s found a way to stick it to that nasty old Indiana for daring to pass its RFRA law:
Today I banned non-essential state travel to Indiana. Statement: http://t.co/zdAMhn0tw2

Wow, Governor. You’re such a leader! Such a model of righteousness!
But if you don’t mind us asking, why exactly was there publicly funded “non-essential travel” to Indiana to begin with?
@NYGovCuomo So exactly how much essential travel do we have to Indiana?

Why are your people taking non-essential travel? RT @NYGovCuomo: Today I banned nonessential state travel to Indiana. http://t.co/fKjuLetXst

If it's non-essential shouldn't be doing it anyways

Why does any state official engage in "non-essential" travel to another state?
— John Podhoretz (@jpodhoretz) March 31, 2015
@NYGovCuomo @NoahCRothman so, if its "non-essential" why were you travelling there in the first place?

Why was there non-essential state travel to IN? RT @NYGovCuomo: Today I banned non-essential state travel to Indiana. http://t.co/0JGY3FPQka

@NYGovCuomo So why would taxpayers want to be funding non-essential travel to Indiana, or anywhere for that matter? #non-essentialtravel
— Steve Barry (@stevbarry) March 31, 2015
@NYGovCuomo @NoahCRothman Why are state employees traveling anywhere non-essentially?

Was there a lot of that going on before? Isn't that a waste of money? RT @NYGovCuomo Today I banned non-essential state travel to Indiana.

@NYGovCuomo Based on NY finances all travel is non-essential. FYI I just banned non-essential family members from visiting NY.

Snort.
@NYGovCuomo I bet the NY taxpayers would like to see you ban non-essential travel EVERYWHERE & wonder why you allow it at all. @RBPundit
— (((WitCoHE))) (@E__Strobel) March 31, 2015
@NYGovCuomo ALL #NY taxpayer funded nonessential state travel should be banned. Nonessential, then why should taxpayers foot the bill?
— Wit'sEnd (@Nayrue) March 31, 2015
I have a suggestion: let's ban non-essential state travel to EVERYWHERE.
— John Hayward (@Doc_0) March 31, 2015
@NYGovCuomo @daveweigel You should ban ALL non-essential travel – period.
— Arthur Kimes (@ComradeArthur) March 31, 2015
Now that sounds like a plan!
Of course, let him be clear: Indiana may be off limits, but Cuba? Cuba is juuuuust fine.
@capitalnewyork @NYGovCuomo Yet plans non-essential, state-funded travel to Cuba.
— Jake Palmateer (@Tahawus506) March 31, 2015
@NYGovCuomo you should ban your absolutely non-essential travel to Cuba since you've already said you won't talk human rights while there.
— Steve McLaughlin (@SteveMcNY) March 31, 2015
But will travel to Cuba. Please. RT @NYGovCuomo Today I banned non-essential state travel to Indiana. #StatesBanStates #Posturing #hypocrisy

@claudiatenney @NickReisman @IngrahamAngle @benshapiro @GovPenceIN Meanwhile, he is going to Cuba. Does he not support basic human rights?
