רקBallot letter

A joint list of former Prime Minister Naftali Bennett and Yesh Atid chair Yair Lapid, led by Bennett, emphasizing executive competence, economic entrepreneurship, and healing the rifts in Israeli society. This time Bennett rules out a government with Ra'am ("October 7 changes a lot of things").

How we chose these

Peace and normalization agreements signed when the prime minister was from the party. Reforms and laws that an official body measured and found met their own goal. If none of the party's laws has a measured impact, we list up to 3 of its main laws by a fixed rule (Basic Laws first, then the largest official cost), even if their impact was not measured, so every party's legislative work is visible. Only laws still in force are shown.

Major laws the party led (impact not evaluated)

  • March 22, 2017 · Initiated by the party

    Dov Hoz Airport (Special Provisions) Law, 2017

    Keeps Sde Dov operating as a civilian airport for as long as military flights continue there.

    Led by: Nine Yesh Atid MKs, among 69 initiators

    Why it's here: one of the party's largest official cost estimates (₪4B).
