Adi Ezuz is set to enter the Knesset on behalf of the Opposition Leader Yair Lapid’s Yesh Atid party following the resignation of independent MK Idan Roll, who quit the party earlier this year but until now has retained his seat.
In a statement, Yesh Atid welcomes Ezuz, an attorney, former Lapid adviser and disability rights activist who currently heads The Woman’s Courtyard organization, which “promotes social justice, equal opportunities and the right of every woman to achieve self-fulfillment in accordance with her will.”
Roll announced today that he is resigning from the Knesset because he does not plan on running in the coming election and it is thus “appropriate to step down now.”
