'Appoint non-Orthodox Jerusalem rabbi' - Israel Jewish Scene, Ynetnews

'Appoint non-Orthodox Jerusalem rabbi' - Israel Jewish Scene, Ynetnews: "The Israel Religious Action Center (IRAC) petitioned the High Court of Justice on Sunday, demanding that it instruct the State to appoint a non-Orthodox rabbi in Jerusalem in a bid to end the alleged discrimination in religious services given to the capital's residents.

The petition, submitted by Reform and Conservative rabbis and communities, claimed that there were hundreds of neighborhood rabbis in Israel – all of them Orthodox men whose salaries are paid from taxpayers' money."
