Pension, Workforce, and Immigration Recovery Act of 2024
Rationale
Wëlstere's workforce collapsed overnight when a third of the country retired at once. This Act restores a sound retirement age, ties welfare to work, opens immigration, eases integration, and shortens naturalization — bringing retirees, immigrants, and welfare recipients back into work.
