Washington Times – by Alex Swoyer
After weeks of a shutdown-inspired filibuster, some Senate Democrats relented Monday and joined Republicans to advance a bill to give state and local governments a green light to penalize companies that boycott Israel.
The Senate voted 74-19 to head off an initial blockade and clear the path for the bill to reach the chamber floor later this week. The vote also signals that barring a major dust-up, the legislation likely has enough support to pass.
Democrats had been filibustering for weeks, with some objecting to the bill on policy grounds and others arguing they didn’t want to deal with any other issues as long as government was partially closed.
Now that the shutdown is over, those latter objections disappeared.

So American of the Senate.
Land of the…free?
Future crime is here (red flag laws) and increasing it’s scope. Not long before thought crime show up on the scene.
Land of the oppressed.
SICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is likely why then ended to so-called shutdown. To pass this abomination. Which is likely to cause more people to individually boycott Israel. They can prevent companies from doing so, but they can never prevent individuals, even with surveillance cameras. If you want Hummus and all they sell is Sabra, by it online from a compnay that sells it from Lebanon. See the 729 code? Don’t buy it. NO ONE CAN FORCE ANYONE TO BUY PRODUCTS FROM ISRAEL!
Pathetic. More bribes from the Hill to pass a law that has no relevance to Americans whatsoever and only helps to enslave us and make us rebel even more.
