Area C ?under the Oslo Accords ?–? will be required to ?mark ?goods as ?’Israel’, ?’Product of Israel’, or ‘Made in Israel’ ?when exporting to the United States.” Yesterday, Senator Cotton sent a letter with Senate colleagues urging the change in U.S. customs policy. “Anti-Israel demagogues like the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions gang have long weaponized country-of-origin rules in their efforts to delegitimize Israel and discriminate against its goods. I commend the administration for heeding my call to end the discriminatory treatment of Israeli goods produced in Judea and Samaria, so they may be labeled properly, ‘Made in Israel.’” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-06-28T00:39:51Z |
