Not really because what would be the last straw, and no one in the USA would buy it, would be to talk about facilitating the process for illegal immigrants but not for legal ones. Also, in the same article it talks about facilitating their access to benefits sooner, which is an important point of what we are talking about. The massive illegal immigration promoted by leftist politicians both in the USA and in Europe treats them as benefit recipients from the very first moment, something that would have been unheard of several decades ago.
Not sure about Europe but in the US illegal immigration has been on a steady decline and mostly consists of people overstaying their visas. That's obviously not sufficient for media fearmongering so the new favorite angle of attack in right-wing media seems to be calling any immigrants they don't like "illegal". Asylum seekers? Illegal even though the law says they're legally here. Haitians? Very illegal because cats and dogs. Etc.
I don't know how that helps anything. At best it dilutes and confuses any potential argument that could be made on the topic.
