Exactly two weeks until the dissolution of the Knesset for recess, the crisis with Bnei Gantz is exacerbated due to quite a few laws that are still stuck.
The most burning issue for the coalition is the laws that Bnei Gantz seeks to pass, chief among them the Pensions Law, laws for which Gantz has announced that he will not participate in the coalition's legislation until they are passed.
The coalition's biggest headache comes from Deputy Minister Abir Kara on the right.
While the Labor and Meretz parties are making compromise voices, Kara is strongly opposed to the important pension law for Gantz.
His associates told Israel Today: "He said in the past that he would vote against the pension law and he did not change his position."
According to them, "Kara does not know how to explain to people that precisely at a time when the cost of living is high, at a time when self-employed people are hurt by the Omicron and do not receive a response, one and a half billion shekels can be found for those who receive the highest pension in the economy. "The data and the numbers. Without any structural changes in the economy - he will not change his mind."

Kara is just part of Bennett's headache, who last week spoke with all party leaders about the political crisis and was scheduled to meet them last Thursday evening, a meeting that was postponed due to events in Ukraine.
This week, too, Bennett plans to discuss the issue with all the party leaders and try to find a solution to a variety of issues that need to be completed in the next two weeks.
The stuck laws
Ganz's laws are not the only ones stuck.
In the next two weeks, the Knesset will have to pass Lieberman's economic plan, the term restriction law, the IDF pensions, the conversion law, the citizenship law, the issue of disqualification and the postal law. According to the plan, MKs are expected on Monday and Wednesday nights.
Next week, Knesset votes are also expected on Tuesday to finish promoting as many laws as possible before the end of the session.
The coalition is talking about the good will that exists to resolve the crisis with Bnei Gantz, and today the transfer of the Innovation Authority to the office of the Minister of Science, Orit Farkash-Hacohen, will raise a white brush.
Meanwhile, the coalition's fear of a headache for the new-old MK, Eli Avidar, who is returning to the Knesset, is growing false. In Tel Aviv that tomorrow - his first day back in the Knesset - will lay down the bill preventing a defendant from forming a government.
