Quote
1: This bill shall be known as the boycott boycott act

2: “Boycott” is hereby defined as refusing to deal with, terminating business activities with, or otherwise taking any action that is intended to penalize, inflict economic harm on, or limit commercial relations with Israel, but does not include an action taken for bona fide business or economic reasons or a boycott that is specifically required by federal or Regional law.

3. The previous provision is to exclude all cases in which the parties involved oppose the Isreali settlements in the West Bank but nonetheless support the existence of the state of Israel. And contractors who hold that position of opposing settlements but supporting Israel's existence should not under any circumstances have their contracts terminated for allegedly violating any of the provisions of this law. No executive order may alter this state of affairs.

4: Any government in the Southern Region shall reserve the right to terminate any contract where a contractor falsely represented their participation in a boycott of Israel.

5: All future contract bids shall include these regulations in the bid solicitation.

6: This act shall take effect sixty (60) days from the  passage of this law

The amendment fails on a vote of 2-3.

I move for a final vote on the bill.

I second the motion.
I will add that this bill isn't great and since the principles embodied with it are bad enough to begin with I'll have to vote against it.
The original was garbage. This amended version is just extremely subpar.

I third the motion.

The Governor's amendment makes me more in agreement with the bill, for my concerns were solely in regards to the forced ending of contracts with businesses. However, now that this is eliminated so that the South may do so if chosen, then this is an acceptable bill.

Tim, please update the title to correct the numbering. This should be S.19-1.18.
