The general secretary of the PSOE and acting president of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, is beginning to outline the proposals that he will present in his investiture speech, and has begun by notifying employers that the interprofessional minimum wage (SMI) will rise again. Specifically, he has stated that he is going to propose that the Workers’ Statute be reformed so that the minimum interprofessional salary by law is 60% of the average salary in Spain every year.
“For that we are going to request the confidence of the Chamber to defend the workers,” Sánchez said at a party rally in the Sevillian town of La Rinconada, in what was his first political act after the debate of failed investiture of the leader of the PP, Alberto Núñez Feijóo.
Shouting “president, president” from the nearly 3,000 attendees at the event, according to socialist sources, Sánchez began his speech, in which he said that he has “more strength” and “argument” than ever after what he has heard these days in the Congress of Deputies. In addition, she has also ensured that the socialists will carry out a parity law so that there is 50% of economic and political power in the hands of women. He has also maintained that his next Government will have housing as its axis due to the difficulty, “if not the impossibility”, he commented, of many generations, but particularly of young people when it comes to accessing it.
“In this legislature we are going to make housing the great national cause, we are going to make housing a constitutional right, not a problem as it is for many people in our country, wherever they live,” he declared. He has also referred to the “climate emergency” that farmers and ranchers are suffering, in addition to the tourism sector, and to the policies that are being carried out regarding the Guadalquivir Hydrological Plan.
