"states where boycotting Israel is illegal" is a sensationalist lie. The article says what these laws actually do
have passed legislation making it illegal for state agencies to work with companies that boycott Israel
So it's all about contracts. That's still bad but it's nowhere near as bad as the headlines implies. A law making it illegal to boycott Israel would be laughably unconstitutional.
I think laughably unconstitutional seems to be what the scotus is on track to say is perfectly ok, so I think it’s the constitution that is laughable at this point.
That’s just it, they can be struck down by lower courts and still make it to the Supreme Court with sufficient funding. And then the Supreme Court can just be like, “Nope, we’re cool with shitting on the Constitution.”
you are right, if PayPal, Stripe and MasterCard did the same thing, the effects would be way worse!
older draft
I interpenetrated the bill to mean, "if an organization (doesn't matter what it is, waste management, orphanage, tax collector, money pit, whatever...) endorses the BDS political policy in any way, (say, a banner on their website) they will be cut off from government money".
I assume your company can be as pro-Israel as you want it to be.
If I'm wrong, let me know.
