Spain Initiates Large-Scale Labor Regularization Program (lemonde.fr)

• Legal status expansion for 500,000 undocumented workers.
• Emphasis on economic integration and labor market needs.
• Contrasts with current restrictive EU-wide migration trends.

"Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez’s government is preparing a framework to grant legal status to 500,000 undocumented workers. The initiative, framed by both economic necessity and humanitarian considerations, targets the current population of 840,000 undocumented foreign nationals. This move positions Spain against the tightening immigration frameworks observed in other European Union nations."
