The Yesh Atid faction has criticized the decision of the Ministerial Committee on Legislation to endorse a bill which seeks to grant half a day off to party members on the day of primaries.

Yesh Atid said, "This government has lost all contact with the public. Instead of dealing with what is important, they deal with party centers and their internal politics. You have nothing to deal with? Pass a law to give another day off to your party members so they can vote for you at the polls? Is this the most important thing to change in the country right now?"
