Prohibits state agencies from using the term "West Bank" in official government materials and instead requires the area to be referred to as Judea and Samaria
Second Read and Referred S General Laws Committee
Summary
The bill directs all state agencies to refer to the area Israel controls since 1967 by its historic name, Judea and Samaria, and forbids using "West Bank" in any official government documents or communications funded with state money. Agency directors may waive this rule if they determine it benefits the state, but must notify legislative leaders within 30 days. The measure failed to advance beyond a committee referral.
