Spanish Business Owners Back Regularization
The Spanish government is planning to give a legal status to about 500,000 foreign residents. Business leaders mostly support this plan. Labor unions are worried about workers' rights.
The plan was made with the help of the Podemos political party. It aims to solve problems with workers not having a legal job. Many businesses, especially in construction and hospitality, hope to hire more people. Unions believe this could lead to workers being treated unfairly. The government needs to find money to manage the changes.
