The popular fast food chain Chick-fil-A has now been banned from a second airport following word just last month that the city council of San Antonio, Texas had voted to exclude the company from a food vendor contract. Food court contractor Delaware North has now also decided to keep Chick-fil-A out of the Buffalo Niagara International Airport in New York State.

“Earlier today I spoke with the vendor of the Buffalo Airport food court project, and they informed me they will not be opening a Chick-fil-A as a part of their airport project,” Assemblyman Sean Ryan, D-Buffalo, said in a statement on Friday. “A publicly financed facility like the Buffalo Niagara International Airport is not the appropriate venue for a Chick-fil-A restaurant.”...

Chick-fil-A... released a statement, outlining that it continues to be mischaracterized as an anti-homosexual company or one that donates to causes that oppose homosexuality.

“Recent coverage about Chick-fil-A continues to drive an inaccurate narrative about our brand,” the restaurant chain stated. “We want to make it clear that our sole focus is on providing delicious food and welcoming everyone — not being a part of a national political conversation. We do not have a political or social agenda.”

“More than 145,000 people from different backgrounds and beliefs represent the Chick-fil-A brand. We embrace all people, regardless of religion, race, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation or gender identity.”
