Some New Orleans City Council members are asking Mayor LaToya Cantrell's administration who paid for her trip to Washington D.C. this week during a ban on non-essential city travel.
The council passed the travel ban for elected leaders and employees in February by a unanimous vote.
After Cantrell's trip to Yale Mayor's College Conference was announced on Sunday night, Council President JP Morrell described her trip as illegal.
On Monday, Cantrell's press team stated that the trip isn't costing the city anything.
