Summary
Alabama's 2016 law prohibits a public entity in the state from entering into certain contracts with businesses unless the business certifies it is not currently engaged in, and will not engage in, the boycott of a person or entity based in or doing business with a jurisdiction with which the state enjoys open trade. The law does not apply if the company offers to provide the goods or services for at least 20% less than the lowest certifying company or if the contract is for less than $15,000.
