Zweibrücken: City council approves payment card for refugees!

Things will get exciting in Zweibrücken on Wednesday, as the city council will vote on a new payment card for refugees. The administration has launched this proposal to provide a constant overview of expenditure and to prevent possible payments of money to smugglers. Above all, those people who are not employed and show far fewer efforts to integrate should benefit from this. Those affected could withdraw up to 130 euros in cash every month, but this also causes some discussion.

The CDU city council group initiated the vote, but the whole thing is not without resistance. The SPD was skeptical and requested that the vote be postponed. In your opinion, important statements and expertise are missing in order to be able to make an informed decision. Surprisingly, the CDU also liked this motion to postpone, so the vote was initially put on hold. Due to these concerns, the city has now sought further statements, including from the Red Cross and Diakonie, both of which advise against introducing the card. A hot topic that concerns everyone involved!

Administration sees disadvantages

The administration is not entirely unapologetic about the whole project. Although the goal of the payment card is seen as positive, those responsible do not believe that it will bring any administrative economic advantage to Zweibrücken. In fact, the administrative costs could ultimately even increase. In the discussions there is also talk of a controlling effect of the card, but this is anything but undisputed. Dialogue is needed here in order to find a solution that is acceptable for all sides.

It will be exciting to see how the vote turns out on Wednesday and what consequences the decision will have for the refugees affected. These developments could also be important for other cities that are considering similar considerations.
