The resolution, which is expected to be signed next week by Tennessee Governor Bill Haslam, declares that the BDS movement is "one of the main vehicles for spreading anti-Semitism and advocating the elimination of the Jewish state," adding that BDS activities in Tennessee "undermine the Jewish people's right to self-determination, which they are fulfilling in the State of Israel." (The BDS movement was started by Palestinian 'non-governmental organizations' in support of the Palestinian cause for "boycott, divestment and sanctions" against Israel, according to Wikipedia)

The bill was initiated by Laurie Cardoza-Moore, founder of the Christian Zionist group Proclaiming Justice to the Nations (PJTN). Cardoza-Moore worked local Jewish and Christian organizations to bring the resolution to the state legislature.

"With the current climate of increasing anti-Semitism, anti-Israel, and anti-Zionist campaigns, Tennesseans and all people of conscience should endorse public statements of support for our Jewish brethren living in Tennessee and pro-Israel students attending colleges and universities in our state," Cardoza-Moore said.

Joanne Bregman, a local Jewish activist and attorney who advocated for the resolution's passage, said that the Tennessee General Assembly's action could serve as a template for other US states to recognize the growing threats of the BDS movement and anti-Semitism. She added that the Christian-initiated bill should be a "wake-up call" for the Jewish community to be the ones "who need to fill the public information void" on BDS and anti-Semitism.
