Immigration Bill of Loudenia

Sponsors: Laura Stroebel, Lusine Tarlamazyan

Whereas Loudenia has an industrial based economy and high-salary jobs, this attracts many immigrants from the Middle East to come and find work in our country.

Whereas the labor population is currently bigger than the population of people with Loudenese citizenship.

Whereas these immigrants have to find a place in our community and these recently receiving the Loudenese citizenship have to be integrated into our society.

Whereas the collision of different cultures can cause tensions and therefore we have to find a peaceful and tolerant way to live together in harmony and support the cross-culture exchange.

Whereas Loudenese is not the 1^st language for every person living in Loudenia and this has to be changed..

Whereas Loudenia already faces unemployment problems which widen the rich-poor gap, it cannot open its labor market without restriction of immigration.

Be it resolved that

1) Work Permits are given to either highly-qualified refugees or to those who live below the poverty line in their home countries. The work permission lasts for 2 years and has to be renewed.

2) Student visas are still given. The application for visas will be further restricted.

3) Citizenship: Immigrants who have lived in Loudenia legally for 10 years they can apply for loudenese citizenship and fully receive it.

4) Scholarships are provided to a extended number of students from the Middle East who don’t have the opportunity to do so in their country.

5) Per immigrated children entering in school there will be money given to the school to improve the conditions for the process of learning Loudenese.

6) The Loudenese government sponsors projects that are related or based on cultural exchange.

In the case of Turkey’s accession to the EU, our immigration problem would be mostly solved as most of Loudenese immigrants come from Turkey.
