Friends, just before you go to the polls to again cast your vote, I ask you to stop and think about who you really believe in, and who you truly trust.

Follow Israel Hayom on Facebook and Twitter 

A vote for Lieberman offer is one that offers it all: a government that effects change with respect to the values and issues that are the most important to our lives: the economy; healthcare; employment; our ability to maintain family life; our livelihood; the ability to plan maternity leave and school vacations according to workweek; changing the state budget to benefit the public; and the solutions offered to victims of sexual violence, as well as our plan to put a stop to this phenomenon, and more.

It is time for us to vote for what is really important to us and what is relevant to our lives.

Some 70% of the Israelis who were laid off during the coronavirus crisis are women. Devising an exit strategy, we will invest in them and create new jobs. The coronavirus will not be over until the very last person made redundant over the pandemic is working again.

I vow to carry on with the vision to Yitzhak Rabin, along with the rejuvenated Labor slate, which truly represents all levels of Israeli society: a convergence of the old and the new, people who faithfully represent Rabin's vision and now champion the truly important causes: diplomacy, social-economic issues, protecting the judiciary, and changing the ties between religion and state.

We feature women and men on an equal footing, all of whom people who have worked to effect change in Israeli society. Labor's agenda focuses on a just economy, promoting the issue of civil marriage and divorce, free education, and equality for all regardless of religion, race, and gender.

I invite you to vote for a change in government; to vote for your values and for someone you know has resisted all the temptations of joining the most profligate Israeli government ever simply for the sake of a job.

I invite you to vote for our lives, and for the values that are important to you. I invite you to vote for yourself. I pledge that we will be worthy of your vote. Labor is your home.
