MK Naama Lazimi (Labor) said Tuesday she will continue to use all parliamentary and legal tools to stop what she called turning the state budget into a tool of 'election bribery,' reacting to Supreme Court Justice Alex Stein's decision ordering an update on the Finance Committee's budget decisions, according to Channel 12.
MK Naama Lazimi (Labor) responded Tuesday to Supreme Court Justice Alex Stein's ruling on the Knesset Finance Committee's budget session, vowing to fight the budget process. Stein earlier rejected a petition by the Hiddush NGO to halt the committee's meeting, ordering it to update the court by Wednesday on its decisions, as The Zioneer reported. The committee is now meeting today to discuss budget transfers, which Lazimi and other opposition MKs have criticized as electioneering during the campaign period. Lazimi's full statement was carried by Channel 12.
