Immigration law: the problematic points of the text
Immigration law: the problematic points of the text – (franceinfo)
The joint committee on the immigration bill meets from 5 p.m., Monday, December 18. Update on blocking topics.
Coming to terms with the opposition without dividing its majority: Élisabeth Borne plays the balancing act, and especially big. On the evening of Sunday, December 17, the Prime Minister once again met with leading figures from the right. Behind the text toughened by the Senate hides reluctance within the majority, with two major points of tension: the abolition of family allowances for legally resident foreigners residing in France for five years and the establishment of a ” deposit” for students.
Pressure from the Republicans
Éric Ciotti, the head of the Republicans, is putting pressure on the Prime Minister and indicated that he was awaiting a letter addressed to the President of the Senate on the timetable for the reform of state medical aid, desired for the start of the 2024 school year, and a commitment from the government to accelerated means for the removal and expulsion of illegal immigrants. The final test of the immigration bill will begin Monday, November 18 at 5 p.m., with the meeting of the joint committee.
