I called. The staffer I spoke with had heard from one other person
about this bill today. Hope that can become a few more... !<br>
<br>
Thank you, Robert, for raising the alarm.<br>

extreme. It would direct the state to cut off
contracts with any company that "boycotts Israel."
"Boycotts Israel" is defined to include <span style="white-space:pre-wrap">"</span>territories

that stopped selling products produced in Israeli
settlements in the West Bank would be subject to
sanctions by the state of Illinois. </span></font></div>
