Two Republican congressmen have introduced legislation that would provide the same employment and economic protections to Americans serving in the Israeli military as US citizens who get deployed to serve in the US military.

The bill, if passed, would amend US law and extend certain protections to include American citizens who serve in the Israeli military.

Those protections include being safe against foreclosure and the repossession of rental property, and would also reduce the interest rates of any loans taken out before their service. It would also protect those Americans from default judgements in legal cases, and grant them job rights and the employment benefits that US veterans receive.

      If it is the same bill I saw earlier it is like a national guard benefit of credit freeze and dept freeze. Also you can come back to the same job and same pay you left with.

        And? The US didn’t ask them to go serve in the IDF. They can deal with the consequences.
