He appealed to conservative and right-wing voters with pledges to shut down migrant routes to Europe, cap benefit payments to refugees, and bar immigrants from receiving benefits until they have lived in Austria for five years.
Why should migrants need benefits if they "contribute" to an economy?

In 2015, Kurz proposed a new Islamgesetz (Islam Law) prohibiting the funding of mosques by entities from abroad, paying imams salaries, and regulating the version of the Quran that may be used in Austria
Why would an outside country want to fund and influence teaching a different culture in a foreign land?
