With a new immigration law in France, foreigners will now be required to pass a language exam if they wish to remain in the country. Tens of thousands will be affected by this decree, and could even risk being kicked out of the country if they do not meet the requisite level. This comes as in-person language courses have been reduced. For many who hold employment and have been living in the country for years, this new requirement could have a significant impact on their future in France. Report by FRANCE 2 (adapted by Lauren Bain).
