Kulanu’s Folkman, Yesh Atid’s Elharar named 2017’s outstanding MKs
The Israel Democracy Institute awards Kulanu MK Roy Folkman and Yesh Atid MK Karin Elharar with this year’s Outstanding Parliamentarian Award.
At a ceremony attended by Knesset Speaker Yuli Edelstein, IDI President Yohanan Plesner thanks Folkman and Elharar for their “exemplary parliamentary efforts, which focus not on creating loud and quickly forgotten headlines, but on professional, thorough and consistent work that brings about real changes in Israeli society.”
Edelstein says the award “proves that one can achieve, be singled out and praised without having to resort to cursing, bullying and screaming.”
