Coalition said struggling to muster majority for Shabbat bill
Coalition chairman David Amsalem is encountering difficulties in mustering a majority for a bill that would shutter mini-markets on Saturdays, according to Israel Radio.
Amid growing opposition to the proposed legislation, scheduled for its final votes on Monday evening, Amsalem has attempted to convince ultra-Orthodox lawmakers to exclude some kiosks from the proposal.
The ultra-Orthodox MKs have refused, according to the radio report.
