Fachkräftezuwanderungsgesetz

You might see 'Fachkräftezuwanderungsgesetz' thrown around a bit with Germans (at least the political folks and journalists).

So a basic description of the term.  Basically, it's a skill labor immigration law....which suggests a doorway or path that you can enter Germany as a highly desired guy, and work for a company.  Yes, kinda like the US version of the work-visas.

Why it's a big deal?  The dwindling population is worrying some industry folks and they need a pathway to exist where they can go and recruit thousands of folks each year....to come in....get into some language training and start working for some German company.

The worry by working-class Germans?  You might see too many people enter, and the salary levels start to stall or stagnant.  So there's a growing discussion over how this will work, and if it might be constructed in a stupid way.
