It is ridiculous how duly elected legislators are bending the constitution for the likes of a mass murdering entity called Israel.

What are they gonna do about it? Arrest me for not buying filthy Isr*eli tomatoes at the grocery store?
I don’t understand the bill or the part in the post image that says, “if these boycotts are endorsed by international bodies like the UN or EU”.
Here’s a summary of the bill. Can someone eli5 please?

Ballsy. The Supreme Court already held up the fact that boycotts are protected under the 1st amendment. Definitely not the first unconstitutional thing they would’ve done in recent time but in this political climate arresting people boycotting Israel might not be the best idea.
Republicans are wild
It’s a way to silence criticism of the USA’s far right foreign policy
Well, here’s the thing. Israel is USA deep state and if the EU or UN back a particular boycott, it, back home in the USA, is tantamount to boycotting ourselves. Using one of our hands to slap the other, so to say.
