Labor leader to join Labor Party

Avi Nissenkorn, the head of the Histadrut national federation of labor unions, announces he will join the Labor Party.

Nissenkorn meets with the head of the party, opposition leader Isaac Herzog, at the Histadrut headquarters in Tel Aviv and says he is “proud” to join the party.

“The social situation in Israel requires us today to deploy all of the political and public forces to fight ever broadening poverty in Israel and the deep gaps in Israeli society.”
