JFNA slams Jewish state law as ‘a step back for all minorities’

The Jewish Federations of North America criticizes the Israeli government for passing the nation-state law, saying the legislation was a “step back for all minorities.”

“As strong supporters of Israel, we were disappointed that the government passed legislation which was effectively a step back for all minorities,” the umbrella group says in a Facebook post.

“Jewish Federations stand shoulder to shoulder with the Druze community and urge Israeli legislators to work with the community as soon as possible to address their very real concerns,” it says.
