JERUSALEM — Israel’s prime minister says his government will amend a bill requiring non-Jewish immigrants to take a loyalty pledge that Arab lawmakers have denounced as racist.

Benjamin Netanyahu said Monday he has asked his justice minister to amend the bill to apply to all immigrants, including Jews.
