Banned State Appeal

On September 14, 2023, Governor Newsom signed SB 447 which repeals AB 1887, the travel ban. Effective immediately, state funds may be used for travel to all states. If the travel occurred prior to the repeal, non-state funds must be used for reimbursement. If the travel occurred September 14th or later, state funds may be used.

Please email traveloffice@csusm.edu with questions.
