Raucous Bundestag Debate Over Family Reunification Proposal
Lawmakers deliberate on coalition plan championing family reunion policies - Parliament deliberates on the coalition's plan for family migration
Dive into the Bundestag's tumultuous session where the coalition's family reunification proposal was on the hot seat! The session heated up further, with other pressing issues on the table, including motions on Gaza, minimum wage, juvenile crime, and climate protection.
The coalition's family reunification proposal, temporarily halting family reunification for individuals with subsidiary protection status, sparked fierce debate. Although it's still up for grabs, tensions are high—human rights groups and the Greens are among the critics voicing their disapproval [1][2][3].
The proposal calls for a two-year suspension of family reunifications, with exceptions for extraordinary circumstances [2][3]. This measure hasn't gone unchallenged and has stirred quite a stir in political circles.
To add fuel to the fire, draft laws have been approved, aiming to abolish speedier citizenship procedures for well-assimilated immigrants, previously allowing them to apply for citizenship in just three years instead of the standard five [4][5].
As for other topics being debated on Friday, search results don't offer specific details. However, in light of the broader migration policy changes being deliberated by the German government, it's safe to assume that other migration-related policies and citizenship reforms might make the cut [4][5].
