The Trump administration has reversed course on Monday after it faced backlash for threatening to withhold at least $1.9 billion (€1.64 billion) in disaster funds from cities and states that support boycotts of Israel and Israeli companies.
The US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) appears to have removed an article from its website under its internal terms and conditions which stipulated that states “must not support severing commercial relations, or otherwise limiting commercial relations specifically with Israeli companies or with companies doing business in or with Israel” to qualify for the funding.
