State law which criminalizes the criticism of Israel does not create a new crime. But if you are stepping on a flower bed at a protest or crossing the road in the wrong way, This provides a penalty enhancement that can lock somebody up for more years or put somebody in jail who was not otherwise subject to any jail time, simply based on the legitimate criticism of Israel. So we have a lot of work to do. When we have our trifecta next year under Governor Fran Hong, and when we have the Senate and the assembly, that is. (10:46–10:58)
