Tell Palm Beach County Clerk & Comptroller: no new Israel Bonds

This office holds Israel Bonds, or credible reports say it does.

To: [office of Palm Beach County Clerk & Comptroller]
Subject: Do not reinvest maturing Israel Bonds

Dear Palm Beach County Clerk & Comptroller:

I am a Florida resident writing about public funds invested in Israel Bonds (Development Corporation for Israel). These bonds are unrestricted loans to the Israeli government during its war on Gaza, and all three major credit rating agencies have downgraded Israel's debt since October 2023.

As these bonds mature, I urge Palm Beach County Clerk & Comptroller not to reinvest in Israel Bonds, and to publish a full public accounting of past and current holdings.

Thank you,
[Your name]
[City, FL]
