Join the new world

Here is the new Knesset Charter I have written and Proposed. It still needs some polishing and feedback from other KMs but I posted it here to make it public. It will go to vote soon and then become the Official Knesset Charter. Once it is Official I will need help translating it to Hebrew and CROY Language 😃 You can skip to the end of the article where I have a lot of updates about the Knesset

Okay First off their have been quite a number of concerns about the goings on in the Knesset as of Late. I would like to make it clear that in my view and most likely the views of many other KMs and eIsraelis the the Knesset has been more active more organized then it has been in months if not ever.

The Knesset Chairs I appointed way back when have all been performing their duties and I have seen plenty of discussions debate and activity within the different committees. I Speaker with the Chairs regularly and they are on MSN.

For those of you who are unaware I will post the different chairs again here and other positions:

Speaker of the Knesset: Gavin
Deputy Speaker: Nibor Dua
Defense Committee Chair: Matan9010
Foreign Affairs Committee Chair: Ohad Sella
Finance Committee Chair: Matanb
Immigration Committee Chair: Dean Michaely

The Defense Committee has been discussing and dissecting the proposed military organizing of the new eIDF. They have been working with both the Defense Ministry and the eIDF staff to help them in areas of recruitment and organization.

Once the eIDF is fully set up I will push the KDC to work up a budget for the eIDF to pay for companies and supplies.

They have also been working on discussions about the relocation of our Hospital to Haifa.

The Foreign Affairs Committee had a lot of discussion on different MPPs and diplomatic relations with different countries. Much discussion about the new alliance "O.N.E." and the role eIsrael will play in it. They have been working with the MoFA to help establish the Ambassador Program aswell. They have also been planning and discussing eIsraels future regarding Turkey and possibly Egypt. The Egypt Matter is also being worked on in the KDC.

The Finance committee quickly got to work following the release of v2. They have discussed new taxes Minimum wage and have started a google spread sheet with a national budget.

I have brought up more discussion regarding the management and operation of government run companies and their funding which should be made more public and more organized.

I would liek to see them work more in the budgetary areas with the MoF aswell as work with the new Ministry of Trade to organized the importing of raw materials into eIsrael.

The Immigration committee has been reviewing citizenship application and doing background checks to make sure all those accepted are not harmful to this country.

I have been organizing things to the best of my ability and sending out mass messages and making public announcements to increase activity and ensure people know whats going on and are satisfied. Im trying my best to appease everyone who has been raising questions and doubts over the Knesset Performance. This has been one of many Articles I Have Published regarding the Knesset and I hope people find this sufficient even though many didnt read my previous articles.

I would be in favor of the creation of an Official Knesset Organization with Knesset newspaper to better organize our publicity department and ensure eIsrael is up to date on all the affairs of the Knesset.

So with the proposed charter and these updates I hope everyone is now on the same page and understands that work is being done in the Knesset and most of the Suggestions people have been giving us we have already tried.

We try our best to increase activity. The Blacklist is being put into place despite opposition. I have messaged all KMs to get active, I have messaged all party leaders to message their KMs to get active, all the chairs have messaged their Committee members to get active. Those that are still not participating will be placed on the Blacklist no questions asked. They have been asked to get active and informed of their duties and rules so their should be no issues. If they dont sign up its because they dont respect rules and have no interest in participating to begin with.

We will continue to maintain the current forum system with one private forum and one public forum there is no confusion and the majority of people are in favor of the current forum system. A private area for Kms and a Public one for Kms and eIsraeli citizens. Fair Simple Easy.

Committee structure will remain the same with mandatory sign ups.

Am Yisrael Chai
