Dear ,

This week's update comes to you from San Antonio, where CUFI has just
wrapped up its largest Leadership Summit ever. Attendees at the event
heard from a host of experts like the Foundation for Defense of
Democracy's Jonathen Schanzer and Lt. Col. Eyal Dror (IDF res.) as
well as dignitaries like the State Department's Special Envoy for
Monitoring and Combating Anti-Semitism Elan Carr and Ambassador of
Israel to the US Ron Dermer.

During the Summit, CUFI Action Fund team members briefed CUFI's top
activists on issues ranging from President Trump's peace plan to the
threats posed by Iran, Turkey and Hezbollah.

However, as the Summit concluded we were extremely troubled to learn
that the UN Human Rights Office released a blacklist of more than 100
companies based in Judea and Samaria in a naked effort to single out
Jews living and working in their Biblical heartland. This unabashedly
anti-Semitic act is particularly malicious as it comes on the heels of
the Trump administration releasing the most realistic proposal for peace
in the Middle East in history.

Rest assured, the CUFI Action Fund is on the frontlines of combatting
efforts to boycott and demonize Israel, and the UN's actions today
will be met with determination and resolve.

For years, we have fought to ensure anti-BDS legislation is advanced
across the country. Twenty-eight states have adopted anti-BDS measures
and several more will do so in the coming months. Likewise, the CUFI
Action Fund is working to advance a similar federal measure. In
Washington, the UN's blacklist compels us to move this issue to the
top of our agenda, and whether by a legislative or executive branch
initiative, the Action Fund will leave no stone unturned until anti-BDS
policy is implemented.

Thank you to all those who attended CUFI's Leadership Summit this
week. As our efforts move forward, we will continue to keep Action
Update readers informed and prepared to ensure Israel is defended in
every way possible.

Sincerely,
CUFI Action Fund Team
