Bill conditioning arts funding on state ‘loyalty’ approved by Knesset committee
A bill that will allow Culture Minister Miri Regev to withhold public funding for cultural organizations “that are working against the principles of the state” is approved by the Knesset’s Culture and Sports Committee.
The controversial bill that was initiated by Regev and backed by the Finance Ministry will now be put before the Knesset plenum for a second and third reading before becoming law.
