Die Fakten
-Der Deutsche Bundestag hat am Mittwoch für die Abschaffung eines beschleunigten Staatsbürgerschaftsprogramms gestimmt, das es hochqualifizierten Ausländern ermöglichte, die Einbürgerung nach drei statt fünf Jahren Aufenthalt zu beantragen.
-Die Abstimmung wurde mit 450 Stimmen für die Maßnahme, 134 Gegenstimmen und zwei Enthaltungen angenommen und erfüllte damit das Wahlversprechen von Bundeskanzler Friedrich Merz, das vom ehemaligen Bundeskanzler Olaf Scholz eingeführte Programm aufzuheben.
-Innenminister Alexander Dobrindt behauptete, der deutsche Pass müsse als Anerkennung für eine erfolgreiche Integration und nicht als Anreiz zur illegalen Migration dienen und verteidigte die Entscheidung, den beschleunigten Weg abzuschaffen.

Less people applied for fast track citizenship then people voted in Bundestag. (almost)
Reminder: less than 1000 people applied for this route until April (last updated statistics for most Bundesländer), virtually none of them illegal immigrants. We have more recent statistics for Saarland: 4 applicants so far, 2 of which were denied
This is literally a non-issue which Dobrint and Merz are trying to push as a big win. It wasn’t even worth the money paid to MPs to attend this meeting
If you are wondering why the CDU/CSU is so focused on this – the answer is that this ruffles no feathers and was unpopular because of their own campaign. Citizenship after three years is still there, just not for the type of people Germany tried to atract. It is still there for spouses of German citizens, and taking that away ruffles far more feathers than this
It’s all about signaling rather than solving the housing problems and rising living cost. Well done. Here are your medals.
This could be a greentext
>Be me, skilled worker
>Willing to integrate, pay my taxes, learn German, ready for passport and settle
>Germany needs skilled workers right
>Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt claimed that the German passport must serve as recognition for successful integration
>Passport denied
These ~~mor…~~ (I don‘t want my door be kicked in) people in the Bundestag really do everything just for the sake of populism and to revert any achievements from other parties.
Two things: A) barely anyone uses this as already established in the thread and B) aren’t the people eligible for this exactly the type of person you would want integrated into your country? This is purely creating a problem from nothing
The CDU is blowing up more hot air to their retired Voters without any impact except shooting us in the foot to foster the type of migration we apparently so desperately need …
It’s to cry
