Work, the minister Orlando in Cagliari. Zedda: "Not even a greeting, institutional rudeness"

There is controversy over the visit of the Minister of Labor Andrea Orlano to Sardinia, to Cagliari for an electoral meeting promoted by the Democratic Party. "He is still a Minister of the Republic - underlined the Vice President of the Region and Councilor for Labor Alessandra Zedda - for institutional grace he should have foreseen a moment of greeting with the highest regional institution and with those who, like him, fight for safeguarding every day employment, development and social integration. For this I feel a great disappointment ".

On the contrary, Zedda recalled, “I appreciated that the secretary of the Democratic Party Enrico Letta, who is also not a minister, on the occasion of his visit to the capital, instead found the time for a moment of confrontation with the mayor of Cagliari”.

Orlando met with journalists at the PD headquarters in via Emilia. He spoke of a minimum wage, tax relief but also of overcoming forms of precariousness as necessary conditions for relaunching work. Regarding citizenship income, he stressed that Il vulnus is “having started a measure without strengthening active policies. We have worked on this and there are already 300 thousand taken in charge of the Gol program and already 300 thousand. Now the employment centers will have the lists and a higher incentive to place people ”.

"As in many Regions governed by the center-right, even in Sardinia we are witnessing a creeping privatization of Healthcare", Orlando said. In fact, he explained, " the growth of waiting lists in fact conveys those who can to private health care ". the Orlando, "here as elsewhere, the vote of 25 September represents a fundamental game for the future of the country, to prevent Italy from taking steps backwards, from increasing a marginality in the areas most in difficulty, and to create a an alternative also at a territorial level to the right ".

Are the policies a test in view of the next regional in Sardinia ? “Everything is a test. When we fight a battle like this, we focus on contents and proposals that are also valid as indications for the future of the Region ”.
