Spain’s Supreme Court has admitted **Isabel Díaz Ayuso’s** petition seeking to suspend the central government’s extraordinary regularisation of an estimated 500,000 undocumented migrants. The Madrid premier argues that the April 14 decree places an unfunded strain on regional services and violates EU law; the Sanchez government counters that the measure addresses chronic labour shortages and brings tax and social-security compliance for people already living in Spain. More than 60,000 applications were filed in the first two days of the scheme.
