CLEVELAND — In response to the war in Gaza, we've heard pro-Palestinian protestors on college campuses across the U.S. and here in Northeast Ohio call for divestment from Israel. Now, those calls may be answered in Cuyahoga County with a new resolution.

“Divestment is extremely important because it shows a sign that our tax dollars our money is being spent responsibly,” said Chance Zurub. Jason Wuliger, the chair of the Government Relations Committee for the Jewish Federation of Cleveland, completely disagrees with the resolution. He says every day, he worries about his loved ones who are dealing with the effects of Hama's attack.

“I think it's a little counterproductive, especially given the state of some of the institutions that we have in Cuyahoga County, especially in Cleveland such as our school system, such as out roads and other projects,” said Zurub.
