With just one week remaining until the official start of the electoral campaign in Andalusia, the main political parties are intensifying their messages. One of the central topics of debate has been national priority and the regularization of immigrants, with clearly differentiated positions among the formations.
A spokesperson for Vox, during an event in Ayamonte, Huelva, has made it clear that if their votes are necessary for the governability of the Popular Party in Andalusia, they will demand the implementation of national priority for access to public aid. This measure seeks to replicate agreements reached in other autonomous communities such as Extremadura and Aragón.
“"The vast majority of Spaniards, whether they vote for Vox, the PP, or the PSOE, understand that in their own country they should have priority over those who have just arrived."
On the other hand, in Almería, a representative of the PSOE and candidate for the Presidency of the Junta, has defended the immigrant regularization process promoted by the Government. According to the socialist leader, this measure is crucial to ensure labor in key productive sectors such as agriculture, construction, and dependency care, which currently face staff shortages.
“"That these people who already live with us, who share with us public parks, the places where we shop, health centers, our children's schools, that these people, in addition to living with us, can also participate with their obligations and, of course, with their rights."
The socialist representative also highlighted that regularization has been a constant demand from various sectors, especially horticulture and care, which need workers to meet their needs. She emphasized that many of these immigrants have come to Spain seeking better living conditions, often fleeing difficult situations in their home countries.
