Veronica Laizure, executive director of Oklahoma’s chapter of Council on American-Islamic Relations, said if SB 1208 moves forward, it would be an indication of state lawmakers putting allegiance with Israel over the lives of struggling Oklahoma families. She added that it would also delegitimize and dehumanize the cause of Palestinian liberation.
“I know we at CAIR Oklahoma and many of our Palestinian and Arab colleagues would be incredibly disappointed should the Oklahoma Legislature signal that kind of intent,” Laizure said. “We sincerely hope that it does not move forward and that it stays as it currently is, which is just a public statement of posture that has no real impact on the lives of the Oklahoma community that we serve.”
