District administrator wants to force refugees to work. In the Saale-Orla district, refugees are supposed to work four hours a day.
This should make them fit for the job market, says Christian Herrgott. If they refuse, they face a monetary cut of up to 180 euros per month. Thuringia's Integration Minister Doreen Denstädt (Greens) sharply criticized Herrgotte's policies. He is using the false narrative of work-shy refugees, she said.
