After rejecting the president's outline, the coalition will continue promoting the legal reform legislation this week.

The Constitution Committee will convene this week for a marathon of debates that will deal with the proposal to change the composition of the Committee for the Selection of Judges so that the coalition will have a majority in it and the proposal to cancel the possibility of the High Court of Justice to intervene or invalidate fundamental laws enacted by the Knesset. Both proposals will be brought to prepare for a second and third reading and so far they have not undergone any changes in the



wording The coalition is interested in softening the reform, but a final agreement on such a wording has not yet been reached. The coalition's schedule is structured according to a plan in which these two sections will be approved in three readings by the end of the Knesset's winter conference in two weeks. It is estimated that other sections of the reform, such as the superseding clause or the cancellation of pretext It is likely that they will be postponed after the recess or to another date. Yesterday, Likud rejected reports that they intend to freeze parts of the reform for a year and approve only the change in the composition of the committee for the selection of judges.

At the same time, the special committee in the Knesset will continue to promote the impeachment law that will prevent the Prosecutor or the High Court from declaring Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu impeachment due to his legal affairs.

The bill was approved in the first reading, and the coalition aims to advance it to final approval even before the Knesset goes into recess.



At the same time, the organizers of the protest against the legal revolution announced a "National Day of Paralysis" that will take place this Thursday, during which there will be a march in Bnei Brak, demonstrations against the home of Yariv Levin, Yuli Edelstein, Yoav Galant, Yoav Kish and Benjamin Netanyahu;

"Protest vigil" in front of the Knesset, a demonstration in front of the government ministers in Haifa;

Demonstrations of reservists, hightkists and other events and disruptions.



The organizers said that this is "the de facto beginning of a dictatorial regime whose judges are loyal to him and not to the Declaration of Independence and Israeli law. The elimination of democracy is not our way."
