Read HB 987 

HB 987 is an anti-boycott bill related to vacation rentals and specifically targeted AirBnB following the company’s decision to delist certain rental properties located in illegal Israeli settlements. The bill preempts local regulations of vacation rentals; a subsequent amendment prevents vacation rentals on the state’s anti-boycott blacklist from benefiting from the bill. Florida had added AirBnB to its blacklist of entities prohibited from benefiting from state investment over the company’s settlement delisting decision. AirBnB reversed its delisting decision in April 2019 and was removed from Florida’s blacklist.
