US Episcopal Church Rejects Boycott of Israeli Goods from Judea and Samaria

From Jewish Voice-

The General Convention of the Episcopal Church in the United States met in Salt Lake City on Thursday, July 2 and rejected in a voice vote the proposal to divest from businesses that have operations in Judea and Samaria and to boycott products from the region.

At the Church’s 78th General Convention, the House of Bishops, led by Presiding Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori, overwhelmingly defeated the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions resolution.  The Episcopal Church has around 1.8 million members across the United States.
