Even if more than a third of Viennese has no right to vote for the lack of Austrian citizenship, Mayor Michael Ludwig (Spö) does not want to shake the right to vote.
The Vienna Spö came in the opinion “that the voting rights, especially for the legislative companies, should still remain a citizenship law,” Ludwig said on Monday on the sidelines of a press conference on the photovoltaic capacities of the federal capital. However, the economic framework must be checked. Some professional groups are excluded on the basis of their income situation, exclusively to strive for an Austrian citizenship.
“I am thinking especially of the healthcare sector or the cleaning service. There the vast majority does not earn that they have 1100 euros net per month after deducting all fixed costs such as rent and energy costs. It was a challenge of social justice, Ludwig said.” We need nurses so urgently and necessary as people who work in other professional groups. “
Organize NGOs “Pass no choice”
Human rights organizations also criticize income -related and bureaucratic obstacles when granting the Austrian passport. With a naturalization percentage of less than 0.7 percent, Austria is one of the absolute ultimate lights in Europe, SOS-Mithic spokesperson Alexander Pollak said recently. SOS Mithensch has announced that they want to have a symbolic “passport in Vienna in Vienna, regardless of the choice”, in which people without Austrian citizenship can also give their voice for the parties who run in Vienna.
