Netanyahu's Agenda: Budget Passed, Judicial Overhaul and Subsidies for Ultra-Orthodox Schools

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has announced that his coalition's judicial overhaul plan, which was shelved in March amid protests and an economic shutdown, will return to the legislative agenda after the passage of the state budget. Opposition leaders have criticized the move, with some threatening to bring the country to a halt if the constitutional overthrow is returned to the agenda. Negotiations between the government and opposition leaders have been ongoing, but with no signs of a breakthrough, coalition figures have increasingly been threatening to resume their unilateral legislative efforts.
