Civil rights are back on the political agenda in the last ten months of the legislature.
The secretary of the Democratic Party Enrico Letta is convinced of this, citing the Zan bill on the fight against homophobia and the law on citizenship. On the first in particular, the wound is still open after the Senate scuttled the bill extending racial, ethnic or religious hate crimes to discrimination against homosexuals, women or the disabled.
As soon as the expected six months of "freezing" have passed, the dems have resubmitted the identical text at Palazzo Madama, with a process that promises to be anything but simple, according to Matteo Salvini.
"Letta said that his priorities are ius scholae and ddl Zan. I respect him - observed the Northern League leader -, but for me the priority is work, work, more work".
The government has made it clear several times that it does not intend to take a position on civil rights issues, so in Parliament their path is conditioned by the different sensitivities among the various political forces, and even within some. This was also seen in the ddl on the end of life, stalled after the agreement with which the center-right obtained to examine a provision on drugs in the Senate, thus holding back the discussion of that on cannabis in Montecitorio, because by regulation the two Chambers do not they can tackle the same issues at the same time.
The bill with the name of the deputy Alessandro Zan still has to be assigned to the commission at Palazzo Madama, who hopes this time to find the mediation spaces with which the approval at first reading in the Chamber was reached in November 2020. "As long as he does not come there. asked to overturn the structure of the law - Zan himself clarified, during the first of the democratic Agora to relaunch the bill, in Milan -. obscene that has been around the world and that has made us ashamed of being Italian can change his mind. Some have already clearly told me that they have changed their minds ".
The Democratic Party "will not deflate", guarantees Letta, who has anchored the judgment on his secretariat also to the approval of a new law on citizenship. Even in this case, however, amidst hundreds of amendments and the obstruction of the League, we are proceeding more than slowly in the Constitutional Affairs Committee in the Chamber. "We talk about it when bills, the unemployment rate, corporate taxation and crime drop - said FdI leader Giorgia Meloni in a question and answer session with the dem secretary -. And let's talk about why it is not enough for you Italy is the second nation in Europe for citizenships granted ".
