The latest version of the proposed “Basic Law: Israel as the Nation-State of the Jewish People” 1 (informally known as the Nation-State Bill or the Nationality Bill) passed a First Knesset reading (in a 64:50 majority) in an all-night session on April 30th. This is a significant milestone for a law that has been presented to the Knesset in various iterations since 2011 and repeatedly shelved as too controversial and makes it easier for a future coalition to turn it into law. However, the legislation was immediately placed on indefinite hold following this approval, due to ongoing fundamental disagreements over its content among the governing coalition parties.
