The government has finally signaled their intent to move forward with joining the Schengen Area. I am honestly stunned to see this outcome and I know that this belongs to the 380 of you who pushed for change when it felt like a distant hope. Please keep a close eye …
Immigrant workers from Non-EU countries contribute towards Irish Economic Growth in virtually all economic sectors ranging from hospitality to healthcare. These migrant workers are potential European Citizens/ Permanent Residents. They may not have an integrated European Identity which the European Union is striving to achieve because; their visa-free travel is restricted within the Republic of Ireland.
Ireland is the only country in the Euro currency zone which is not a Schengen Visa country.
Because of restricted travel rights, migrant workers in Ireland are denied the opportunity to integrate at a European Level.
As a citizen/resident of the European Union, I want Ireland to join the Schengen Visa Zone.
I am honestly overwhelmed by how many people have joined this cause. It feels like we are on the verge of hitting our first big milestone, and the credit for this momentum belongs entirely to your kindness. If you find a moment today, please help us reach that next goal by sending this to someone who might care about these issues.
