A campaign has been launched to try to overturn Wisconsin’s unconstitutional law limiting your right to engage in Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions in support of Palestinian rights.
Since 2018, Wisconsin has been one of 38 states with an “anti-boycott law,” known as Act 248, that has been influenced by special interest groups supporting a foreign government. Act 248 requires that in order to secure a state contract of $100,000 or more, applicants must pledge not to boycott Israel (and only Israel). The law also prohibits all levels of government from dog catcher on up from engaging in any type of BDS — again, only against Israel.
On Wednesday, April 23, members and supporters of the Wisconsin Right to Boycott Campaign will meet at the State Capitol to lobby our representatives to support new legislation to restore our right to boycott. There will be a press conference in the Capitol at 9:30 am, followed by pre-arranged meetings with representatives through 2-3 pm. The day will close with a rally to protect our voices, our democracy, and our country. WE NEED YOU TO JOIN US! Thanks for your support, Barb O. of MRSCP http://www.madisonrafah.org
