Biography
Biton was appointed CEO of Shas in 2014. In 2016 he took over the party's Ma'ayan Hinukh Torani school system, increasing its enrollment by 10,000 in two years. Following a complaint by Hiddush, in 2020 the Office of the Attorney General ruled that he could not be both CEO of the party and the school network.
Biton was placed ninth on the Shas list for the 2015 elections. The party won only seven seats, and when he had the opportunity to take his seat as a replacement, he declined, allowing Yigal Guetta to take his place. He subsequently turned down the opportunity to run on the party's list for the April 2019 Knesset elections. However, prior to the 2021 elections he was placed fifth on the Shas list, and was elected to the Knesset as the party won nine seats.
Biton lives in Givat Ze'ev, an Israeli settlement located north of Jerusalem.
