The law, passed Monday and aimed at deterring emigration from Africa, was originally proposed in late 2012. It forbids the withdrawing of funds by immigrants, dubbed “illegal infiltrators," in amounts larger than twice the minimum wage he or she earned during their time in Israel times the number of months they were in Israel, according to the original press release from October.
The immigrants, many of them migrant workers, would be able to extract the remainder of their funds once they return to their home countries.
