Unbelievable! New U.S. Bill Proposes $1 Million Fine for Boycotting Israel
May 6, 2025
The US House of Representatives is preparing to vote on a controversial bill that would impose severe penalties, including steep fines and lengthy prison terms, on American citizens who participate in boycotts of the Israeli regime or its illegal settlements when such boycotts are promoted by international bodies like the United Nations or the European Union.
The vote on the so-called anti-boycott legislation is scheduled for Monday. If passed, the bill would expand existing US anti-boycott laws to penalize individuals for taking part in peaceful, values-driven political actions; most notably those aligned with the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement.
Co-sponsored by pro-Israeli lawmakers Mike Lawler and Josh Gottheimer, the legislation proposes punishments of up to $1 million in fines or up to 20 years in prison.
