The United Torah Judaism faction announced on Monday that it has unanimously decided to suspend all coalition support in the Knesset until the government finalizes deliberations on the long-disputed draft law and brings it to a vote.
The faction, which includes both Degel HaTorah and Agudas Yisrael, issued a clear message: it will not participate in any coalition votes this week as a protest against the continued delay in resolving the issue.
In recent months—prior to the outbreak of war with Iran—UTJ had already launched a similar boycott, refusing to vote with the coalition unless a concrete solution to the draft law was advanced.
The crisis peaked two weeks ago when UTJ threatened to support a bill to dissolve the Knesset, following the directive of Slabodka Rosh Yeshiva Rav Dov Landau. After hours of overnight discussions, MKs from Degel HaTorah and some members of Agudas Yisrael ultimately voted against the dissolution bill, swayed by direct assurances from Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and coalition leadership that real progress on the draft law would be made.
Now, UTJ is once again drawing a line in the sand. The party is demanding that negotiations over the draft law conclude immediately and that the bill be brought to a full Knesset vote. Until that happens, UTJ has declared that it will maintain its freeze on cooperation with coalition voting.
