The regularization of undocumented workers is “a widely shared measure of common sense”, argued Élisabeth Borne on Monday, refusing to see it as a “call for fresh air” for illegal immigration as denounced by the right in the Senate, where it begins the examination in session of the government bill.
The government’s intention is not, contrary to what I hear, to be a change of heart, and this regularization should not exempt employers from thinking about the attractiveness of their jobs, declared the Prime Minister on France Inter. However, I think that This is a widely shared common sense measure.continued Ms. Borne.
It is about allowing people who have been in our territory for years, who are well integrated, who have worked for years, to be able to be regularized. And I think that many, including employers, emphasize the usefulness of this type of article, declared the head of government. This provision is one of the main blocking points of the immigration bill the examination of which, interrupted in February after adoption in Committee in the Senate, resumes Monday in session before the upper house.
Better integrate those who intend to stay
Another subject of this bill: State Medical Assistance (AME). Interior Minister Grald Darmanin said he was considering delete it to transform it into emergency medical aid. I am not in favor of abolishing the AME. So, after that, we can change our name. But the principle that we can be treated because it poses a public health issue, I think is important in our country, said the Prime Minister.
The logic of this bill, which has been postponed many times, is to be able to be more effective, to move away more quickly those who do not belong on our soil and at the same time to better integrate those who intend to stay there, summarized Lisabeth Borne.
