- Arab-American activists have sued to block the move, alleging that Israel does not provide unfettered access to U.S. Citizens of Palestinian heritage as required by the program's rules.
- The lawsuit claims that the U.S. Is entering into an agreement that allows Israel to create different classes of U.S. Citizens, treating them disparately, which is not reciprocal to how the U.S. Treats Israeli citizens.
