    Lapid: We won't allow any religious coercion into legislation

    Yesh Atid Chairman MK Yair Lapid responded on Twitter to haredi threats to a law bypassing the Supreme Court regarding allowing chametz into hospitals on Passover.

    "We won't allow any religious coercion in legislation. A sane government doesn't tell its citizens what they are allowed and what they aren't allowed to eat," Lapid tweeted.
