Deri threatens to quit government if Shabbat minimarket law doesn’t pass
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleInterior Minister Aryeh Deri says he will resign from the government if the so-called minimarkets bill is not passed into law.
The legislation would grant Deri, who is ultra-Orthodox, the authority to bypass municipal bylaws, to force store owners to close their businesses on the Jewish Sabbath.
Members of the Yisrael Beiteinu say they will vote against the law.
