Ask Office of the Illinois State Treasurer for the records

Israel Bond purchases are not centrally reported, and this office has no public disclosure we can find. The only way to know is to ask. It takes one email, and the law is on your side.

To: FOIA@illinoistreasurer.gov
Subject: Public records request: Israel Bonds holdings

To the records officer of Office of the Illinois State Treasurer:

Under the Illinois Freedom of Information Act, I request all records of purchases, holdings, sales, and maturities of bonds issued by the Development Corporation for Israel (Israel Bonds) or by the State of Israel, held by Office of the Illinois State Treasurer, including amounts, purchase dates, coupon rates, and maturity dates, from January 1, 2015 to the present.

I am a resident of Illinois. Please acknowledge receipt of this request and respond within the time required by law. If any portion is withheld, please cite the specific legal exemption and release all non-exempt material.

Thank you,
[Your name]
