Parliament votes 444-135 to suspend family reunions for many migrants. At the end of March, more than 388,000 people living in Germany had the status. The bill approved Friday is the first legislation on migration since Friedrich Merz took office. Far-right, anti-migration Alternative for Germany described the move as a very small step in the right direction. German governments have for years faced pressure to curb migration as shelters filled up.
