B'Yachad party will pursue LGBTQ marriage rights if part of next government, Lapid vows

Yair Lapid, leader of the B'Yachad party, has pledged to pursue LGBTQ marriage rights should his party join the next government. The B'Yachad party, a political alliance formed by Naftali Bennett and Lapid’s Yesh Atid Party, is currently positioned as a primary challenger to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s administration ahead of the October elections.

The commitment marks a significant policy platform for the opposition bloc, which aims to unseat the current government. By prioritizing LGBTQ marriage rights, the party seeks to distinguish its legislative agenda from the incumbent coalition as the national campaign intensifies.
