The "Eisenkot Bloc" is set to leverage its parliamentary majority this week to advance legislative measures aimed at reversing actions taken by the previous government and Knesset. These efforts include establishing special committees to address the repeal of laws concerning the "impeachment" of lawmakers, the Police Internal Investigations Department (Mahash), and the judicial appointments committee. Additionally, they plan to tackle the repeal of Minister of Communications "Karai's" media law and a five-year plan for the Arab society.
Concurrently, the bloc is engaged in coalition negotiations for government formation. A key parliamentary priority is the annulment of legislation described as part of a "regime overhaul." Furthermore, a vote is scheduled for Tuesday to replace the current Knesset Speaker, Amir Ohana, with Matan Kahana, a candidate nominated by the Yesh Atid party.
