Knesset rejects Citizenship Law

 https://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/309333

The Citizenship Law, which prevents the unification of Palestinian Arab families, did not pass in a vote in the Knesset plenum early Tuesday morning.

59 MKs voted in favor of the law, 59 voted against it and two abstained.

Just before the vote, the coalition turned the vote on the law into a vote of confidence in the government.

Two members of Ra'am, including chairman Mansour Abbas, voted in favor of the law. MK Amichai Chikli (Yamina) voted against.
