Wisconsin: The Right to Boycott Campaign

Several of WNPJ’s member organizations (JVP, WBW, WCJP, and others) are working hard to protect our democratic institutions and constitutional right to dissent. But did you know that, since 2018, a Wisconsin law has restricted your right to boycott? Wisconsin is one of 38 states with an “anti-boycott law,” requiring anyone seeking a state contract of $100,000 or more to sign a pledge that they will not boycott Israel. This is a requirement of allegiance to a foreign country in order for Wisconsinites to do business in their own state! Representatives will introduce a repeal this spring. To get involved in the WI Right to Boycott Campaign, we invite you to do the following (and to please share this with your membership):
Register for a remote info session on one of the following dates: 

March 19 @ 8:00 p.m.
April 5 @ 4:00 p.m.
April 17 @ 7:00 p.m.


Check out more information and fill out our interest form.
Join us at the Capitol on April 23, where we will lobby our representatives to restore our right to boycott.
If you have questions or would like to schedule an info session specifically for your organization, contact WIRightToBoycott@gmail.com
