Standing With Israel
Stand with Israel and oppose taxpayer support for entities engaged in boycotts against Israel.
Occurrences
Evidence
Onder's campaign issues page says he sponsored and passed SB739, preventing taxpayer dollars from going to entities boycotting Israel.
SB739 lists Onder as sponsor, was signed by the governor, and created the Anti-Discrimination Against Israel Act.
H.R.867 would amend the Anti-Boycott Act of 2018 to cover international governmental organizations.
Congress.gov shows H.R.867 status as Introduced, sponsor Lawler, 24 cosponsors, and latest action referral to Foreign Affairs.
Jewish Insider reported the House canceled a planned vote on the IGO Anti-Boycott Act after right-wing objections.
Assessments
Onder personally sponsored and passed Missouri SB739 in 2020, which directly restricted public contracts with entities boycotting Israel and matches the anti-BDS taxpayer-support substance of the promise. However, this was a pre-federal-campaign state legislative accomplishment, not a delivered federal House outcome from his 2025 term. The aligned federal vehicle, H.R.867, had not passed and the available evidence does not show Onder sponsoring, cosponsoring, or materially advancing it. Given the strong prior candidate contribution but no completed federal delivery, partial credit is appropriate.
