תארו לעצמכם שהמשגיח במסעדה היה מעיר לכם שלא חיכיתם 6 שעות מאז שאכלתם בשר או בודק אם אתם מברכים לפני האוכל.עכשו תבינו את...

Translation:
Imagine to yourselves a mashgiach in a restaurant pointing out to you that you have not waited 6 hours from when you ate meat, or that he checks if you said a bracha before eating.
Now you will understand this shocking law from MK Moshe Gafni with the support of Habayit Hayehudi. Every person immersing in a mikva will be obligated to do so according to halacha. And the person who decides the halacha is the mikva attendant.
Listen well, members of the ministry of religious services and of the Rabbanut: Your job is to provide a service. Whomever wishes to be assisted by the attendant, go ahead, and whomever does not want to be assisted, that is their right. Your job is to provide a kosher mikva, and no less important, a friendly usable one. Those immersing will decide what to ask for and what not. It is not your job to stick your nose in and supervise the immersion!
Note: The law was passed in the committee, and will be prepared for Knesset voting.
I am not sure why Glick is so upset at Habayit Hayehudi for their vote on this. The members of his own Likud party also voted and allowed this to advance.
