First Judicial Reform Bill Passes Plenum Vote

The Knesset held its first vote on a bill that limits some Supreme Court power, part of a rebooted judicial overhaul by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that has set off a deep political crisis.

The vote, called the first reading, passed along party lines after a lengthy debate that saw some of Israel’s most dramatic legislative moments, including protesters trying to storm the plenum. There are two more additional votes, or readings, before the bill becomes enacted.
