Contributing sentiments towards policy:

40% : That's good, because while the travel ban hasn't influenced legislators in other states, it has negatively affected Californians.
34% : The travel ban also threw a wrench into laws California leaders rushed to adopt to help pregnant women living in states that had passed abortion restrictions after the Supreme Court overturned Roe vs. Wade.
30% : Atkins has crafted a proposal that would repeal the travel ban and replace it with an outreach program to those same states.
27% : While Low and Equality California, a gay rights organization that pushed for the travel ban, haven't yet signed on to the Atkins bill, they have indicated a willingness to discuss it.
