Buffalo follows a similar ban put in place last week at San Antonio's airport.

One week after getting banned at a Texas airport, Chick-fil-A has now been blocked from placing its chicken restaurant in the Buffalo Niagara International Airport.

"I strongly urge the NFTA to reverse this decision,” Ryan wrote."I don’t believe the leadership of the NFTA intends to help spread hate and discrimination, but allowing a corporation like Chick-fil-A to do business at the Buffalo Niagara International Airport will help to fund continued divisive anti-LGBTQ rhetoric. New York is a welcoming state that celebrates diversity.”

“Recent coverage about Chick-fil-A continues to drive an inaccurate narrative about our brand. We do not have a political or social agenda or discriminate against any group. More than 145,000 people from different backgrounds and beliefs represent the Chick-fil-A brand,” the spokesperson said. “We embrace all people, regardless of religion, race, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation or gender identity.

"The Constitution's protection of religious liberty is somehow even better than Chick-fil-A's chicken," Paxton wrote to the San Antonio City Council on Thursday.
