No More Shuls to Be Built in Israel

In the current budget proposal that is due to be submitted and voted on for the coming years, the Ministry of Finance (i.e. Yair Lapid) removed any funding for buildings of religious institutions. Meaning, for at least the next couple of years, if the budget passes as is, the government will not finance the construction of any new buildings that are for religious purposes - such as shuls and mikvaot.
the Deputy Minister of Religious Services, Rav Eli Ben Dahan, is fighting the budget cut and says the issue will be resolved and the buildings will be built.

The people in RBS C fighting to get some basic shuls and mikvas built better get it going fast, or else the entire budget for such things might just disappear. Unless for them the money is already there and wont be canceled as it was designated when the neighborhood was built.
To paraphrase Martin Niemoller, First they came for the chickens (for kapparos),  I remained silent. I was not a chicken. When they came for the shuls and mikva, I was silent. I was not a shul. When they came for me, there was no one left to speak out.
