MK Ghaida Rinawie Zoabi (Meretz), who voted against the Draft Law and thus caused for it not to be passed in a vote in the Knesset, explained that she did so in protest of the coalition's policy toward the Arab public.

"The coalition crossed all the red lines in the expulsion and planting operations in the Negev by the JNF and approved the 'fascist and racist' citizenship bill introduced by MK Simcha Rothman of Religious Zionism," she said.

"I voted with my conscience and with Arab society," Zoabi added, noting that "the coalition is committed to change towards Arab society but unfortunately these laws teach that the opposite is true, and therefore the interest of my people is above all."
