In the 16th Knesset

  • Presented a report to the State Audit Committee, based on the session we organized on the subject of process in the Rabbinical Courts.
  • Initiated relevant discussions in the Committee on the Status of Women.

The Struggle against the Proposal to grant Judicial and Arbitration Rights to the Rabbinical Court

We are actively fighting proposals to grant judicial and arbitration powers to the Rabbinical courts. These proposals, if accepted, will represent a dangerous step for the Israeli law and society, and will significantly worsen conditions for women in the Rabbinical Court system.
