Law Targeting Hasidic Jews?

Many women in the Jewish community marry young, especially in the Syrian and Hasidic circles. The proposed bill read PDF version will make such marriages illegal. We have many happily married couples in our community that attest that this bill will only hurt us. Couples that marry before the age of 18 may be prosecuted by law. Read Bill HERE
