    Senate Forbids Israel Boycott - Is It Constitutional?

    Senate Forbids Israel Boycott - Is It Constitutional?



    The first Senate bill of the year has taken on those who seek to boycott Israel over its treatment of Palestinians. In a complicated maneuver, the Senate has voted to allow states to boycott the boycotters. Is it a free speech/First Amendment issue? Supporters of the bill say no. Many civil libertarians disagree.

    At which point will Americans realize that creating an unaccountable institution that is able to pass its liability on to tax-payers is immoral and attracts sociopaths?

    No.

    The problem is that we have Congressmen that are truly unfit for office, they
    are oahtbreakers' , they have no intention of upholding the Constitution, they
    have every intention of maintaining their 'connection' with Israel, ''AMERICA BE DAMNED'' .

    Israel is the biggest welfare recipient in the history of man , even though that sounds
    sexist (man) , feminists have produced 9 holocausts since 1974 by freely butchering
    their own babies.
    ''The revolution devours its young'' its a matter of convenience.

    The western diet requires at least minimal amounts of animal / animal bi products to replenish
    vitamin and trace mineral deficiencies .

    Isn’t it ironic? Senator Mark Rubio (RINO-IL) is leading the charge to make some boycotts illegal, while at the same time leading the charge (with Mike Pence) to heavily “boycott” the nation of Venezuela.

    This law should be struck down by the courts as being a violation of the 1st Amendment. According to the Liberty Report, they tried to implement this in a roundabout way.

    If my understanding of this is correct, they have essentially tried to say that States do not have to follow the 1st Amendment. Imagine if they did this to the 2nd Amendment. If this precedent stands, it is guaranteed that they will do the same to the 2nd. For example, the law would essentially say that the Federal government explicitly gives California permission to completely ban guns. It would not be a direct Federal ban, just a ban once removed via the States.
