He made aliyah to Mandatory Palestine in 1934, and settled in Haifa, where he became secretary of the local branch of Poalei Agudat Yisrael. He also served as director of the organisation's Immigrant Absorption Department for the north of the country. During the 1948 Arab-Israeli War Katz served as a member of the Situation Committee and Mobilization Committee. In 1950 he was elected to Haifa city council, on which he served until 1967. The following year he became a member of its directorate (on which he remanied until 1967) and deputy mayor, a position he held until 1959. In 1955 he was elected to the Knesset on the Religious Torah Front list, an alliance of Agudat Yisrael and Poalei Agudat Yisrael. He was re-elected in 1959, 1961 and 1965. He died in office on 21 December 1967, his seat taken by Avraham Verdiger.〔(Knesset Members in the Sixth Knesset ) Knesset website〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ya'akov Katz (politician born 1906)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
