As Pride Month is celebrated all over the world, Israeli citizens are once again sharply reminded that gay marriage is still not recognized by the state. Israeli news source Channel 13 conducted a survey of Israel’s elected officials to find out their opinions on the issue. The entirety of Yair Lapid’s party, Yesh Atid, stated that they are in favor of gay marriage with the exception of MK Elazar Stern who chose not to comment. Benny Gantz’s party, Blue and White, also came out with total approval with the exception of MK Mofid Mari who also did not comment. Gideon Sa’ar’s New Hope Party also only had one MK who refused to comment, Bennie Begin, with the rest of the party in favor. Meretz MKs came out in favor of gay marriage, although MK Ghaida Rinawie Zoabi declined to comment.
