Yesterday, Senator Cotton sent aletterwith 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 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
