The traffic light coalition's plans for tax breaks for foreign skilled workers in Germany are causing widespread criticism. Various politicians, including SPD politicians Petra Köpping and Georg Maier, as well as Green politician Beate Müller-Gemmeke, express concerns about the unfairness of the proposal and the preferential treatment of foreigners over Germans.
Labor Minister Hubertus Heil also doubts the effectiveness of tax breaks and emphasizes the need to focus on reducing bureaucratic hurdles and improving professional recognition. The opposition criticizes the plans as discriminatory and demands tax cuts for all Germans.
However, some experts and associations defend or call for further incentives. The shortage of skilled workers in Germany is a pressing issue, but the proposed tax breaks are viewed as controversial and potentially violating the principle of equal treatment.
