Members of the ultranationalist Religious Zionism party said they want to change an anti-discrimination law in a way that would let businesses and doctors deny service to LGBTQ people on the basis of religious belief.
Israel's largest medical center and health care workers from hospitals around the country have spoken out against remarks by allies of Benjamin Netanyahu calling for a law to allow discrimination against LGBTQ people in hospitals and businesses.
Earlier this week, two Netanyahu allies from the ultranationalist Religious Zionism party said that their faction seeks to change an anti-discrimination law in a way that would permit businesses and doctors to deny service to LGBTQ people on the basis of religious belief. Netanyahu later rebuked Struck for her remarks, saying there would be no curtailing of LGBTQ rights under the new government.
The long-time leader, who served 12 consecutive years before he was ousted last year, already has agreed to put a hard-line politician known for his anti-Arab views in charge of the national police force and put another hard-line settler leader in charge of West Bank settlement policies.
