DES MOINES — Gov. Reynolds signed two bills into law relating to anti-BDS of Israel and antisemitism during a formal meeting with the Israeli Consul General to the Midwest Yinam Cohen.
HF2373 is an act relating to restrictions regarding companies boycotting Israel.
HF2220 is an act relating to antisemitism in the state of Iowa.
“Today we express Iowa’s enduring support for the State of Israel and our categorical rejection of anti-Semitism,” said Gov. Reynolds. “Together, these bills send an important message: Iowa continues to stand shoulder to shoulder with the State of Israel, one of America’s most important and reliable allies, while fighting all forms of religious and ethnic discrimination.”
“We strongly believe that both Iowa and Israel can continue to work together to create lasting partnerships that are beneficial to both states and local economies. Gov. Reynolds has been steadfast in her support for Israel and she has witnessed firsthand Israel’s achievements in innovation, water technology, medicine, and more” added Cohen.
Both bills will go into effect on July 1, 2022.
Companies have the right to refuse to deal with Russia due to the Ukrainian situation, but lose that right when dealing with Israel. It’s a sad but true fact, not everyone likes jews. Some people hate Israel and don’t believe that the holocaust existed. And guess what, that’s their right. Or rather, it should be. I wonder what ever happened to the 1st amendment.
Ask the libs
The law is pitiful. Israel is no friend to the world at all. Not helping Ukraine in the slightest. Gobbles up USA taxpayer $ with nothing in return.
