Dems Block Senate Israel Bill/ANTI 1ST AMENDMENT RIGHTS BILL!
“While millions of Americans suffer from the effects of the ongoing government shutdown, it's outrageous that Senate Republican leaders are prioritizing legislation that tramples on the First Amendment and advances the interests of the Israeli settlement movement. Not a single Democrat should vote to enable this farce.â€
the country's first Palestinian American woman in Congress, Michigan Rep. Rashida Tlaib, who has spoken about the rights of Americans to support the BDS issue.
“This is the U.S. where boycotting is a right & part of our historical fight for freedom & equality,†Tlaib said in a weekend tweet. “Maybe a refresher on our U.S. Constitution is in order, then get back to opening up our government instead of taking our rights away.â€
But Rubio's office says the bill allows the governments “to counter economic warfare against Israel.â€
Rubio, a Florida senator, said in a series of tweets, including one pointed at Sanders and Tlaib: “The shutdown is not the reason Senate Democrats don't want to move to Middle East Security Bill.... A significant # of Senate Democrats now support #BDS & Dem leaders want to avoid a floor vote that reveals that.â€
