ANTI-BOYCOTT REGULATIONS
A law which forbids customers from abstaining their patronage of a business. Within the United States, the anti-boycott regulations mainly deal with withholding support coming from Israeli businesses. The Arab League formally obliges its member countries to stop trading with Israel and conducts trade with companies trading with Israel basis on the agreement which it enacted in 1948. As a response, the United States put into action the anti-boycott laws during the mid-70s to restrain U.S. companies from boycotting trades with the Israeli companies. The law also prevents refusing to employ U.S. citizens due to their religion, race, or nationality.
