Coalition parties threaten to vote against key budget bill
The government has been scrambling to muster a majority for a key budget-related bill after two coalition factions threatened to vote against the measure unless their demands are met. While jockeying by coalition parties over the budget is nothing new, the interests at stake in the current government are more complex, according to political scientist Gayil Talshir of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. She told KAN reporter Naomi Segal the issue to watch is the haredi draft bill.
