Illinois seeks Ben & Jerry s divestment over Israel stance

Illinois seeks Ben & Jerry s divestment over Israel stance JOHN O CONNOR, AP Political Writer July 28, 2021 FacebookTwitterEmail SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (AP) Illinois regulators plan to warn the owner of Ben & Jerry’s to reverse the company s decision to stop selling ice cream in the West Bank and East Jerusalem or face divestment by the state, an official said Wednesday. The Israeli Boycott Restrictions Committee of the Illinois Investment Policy Board will meet to approve setting a 90-day deadline for Unilever to reverse the decision by Ben & Jerry’s, committee chairman Andy Lappin said. There is no date set for the meeting but it will be called specifically to address the July 19 announcement by the Vermont-based confection-maker that continuing to market its product in Palestinian-sought territories is “inconsistent with our values.”
