Over the years, many serious challenges have developed, both internal and external, in spiritual and practical areas. Because these issues were not addressed properly, they have grown significantly in recent years and have become real sources of hardship.
We can therefore no longer afford to stand aside. The time has come to address these complex challenges seriously and at their roots, in order to strengthen, protect, and improve the condition of the Charedi community. The time has come to act.
I Those with a genuine devotion to Torah must have the security and ability to learn without feeling threatened. The only way to ensure this is with a comprehensive arrangement distinguishing them from those for whom Torah is not their primary occupation, providing options for every path within the Charedi community.
What we will do
II Every individual that does not devote his life completely to Torah study will be required to serve in some capacity, alongside the rest of Israeli youth. Appropriate and varied tracks will be established to enable meaningful service without compromising on meticulous Torah observance and Charedi lifestyle.
What we will do
III Charedi education will remain independent, and that independence will be fiercely guarded. But we know the truth: that our children deserve better-trained teachers, safe buildings, real help for those who struggle, and tools to serve them throughout their lives.
What we will do
IV Dropouts are a festering wound at the heart of the Charedi community. Students are pushed out of the system, the parents’ pain is immeasurable, and unfortunately, a systemic answer does not exist.
What we will do
V Every Charedi family deserves the opportunity to earn a dignified livelihood without worrying about social consequences. This must begin in childhood, with foundational learning in the basics of core educational subjects delivered alongside and in no way contrary to Torah and yiraas shamayim. The effort must continue and provide real training for those with the responsibility of a family already on their shoulders.
What we will do
VI Construction for the Charedi community lags far behind its natural growth; overcrowding deepens, and debts pile up. We refuse to accept detached “Charedi housing projects” on the periphery, without employment opportunities or a future.
What we will do
VII Discrimination in admission to institutions is both an issue of bein adam l’chaveiro and bein adam l’Makom, and every student will be considered on their merits, regardless of origin, status, or connections.
What we will do
VIII Every Jew, no matter where they’re from, has the right to make Aliyah and build a home here. The State’s responsibility does not end at Ben-Gurion Airport, but in real integration: livelihood, education, housing, and community.
What we will do
IX We are on the economic right: a free market, competition, and low taxes. We will work to lower the cost of living, to ease the burden on those who work, start businesses, and invest, and to make government focused and efficient.
