Kentucky Governor Signs Bill to Block BDS Movement
(LEX18-Lexington, Ky.) Melissa Ratliff - Gov. Matt Bevin signed into law Tuesday Senate Bill 143, which will allow Kentucky to refuse to do business with companies that boycott other countries with which Kentucky has open trade. The bill was supported by local Jewish leaders who say it will prevent openly anti-Semitic businesses from operating in the state. 25 other states have passed similar legislation.
