Two major parties within the National Unity bloc, Together led by Naftali Bennett and Yisrael Beiteinu led by Avigdor Lieberman, have not committed to repealing the law that weakens the authority of the Attorney General. This law, considered a core element of the judicial overhaul promoted by the Netanyahu government, significantly curtails the Attorney General's powers and was approved by the Knesset in July, set to take effect after the next elections.
While the Together party stated it had no specific comment on the law, Yisrael Beiteinu emphasized its commitment to establishing a constitution that would end struggles between the branches of government. In contrast, the Yesh Atid and Democratic Movement parties have pledged to revoke the law.
