According to a poll carried out by Hiddush, an organization for Religious Freedom and Equality, some 60 percent of the Jewish population now support recognizing all types of marriages, including civil, Conservative and Reform ceremonies. Reporter Arieh O’Sullivan spoke with Dr. Yifat Solel, the deputy director and legal adviser of Hiddush, about their poll.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
