Equal tax benefits for same sex couples' bill passes prelim vote
None
A bill sponsored by Yesh Atid which promises same-sex couples the same tax benefits heterosexual couples enjoy has successfully passed a preliminary reading in the Knesset. Some 44 Knesset members supported the bill and 20 objected.
The bill is in fact an amendment to the Tax Act, and promises same-sex parents the same tax benefit heterosexual parents receive. (Moran Azulay)
