“Do not promulgate this dangerous text. » A petition published on the website of Humanity, asks Emmanuel Macron not to promulgate the Immigration law passed by Parliament on Tuesday evening. “In the last presidential election, millions of votes went to Emmanuel Macron in the second round to block Marine Le Pen,” we can read. This vote obliges me, assured the president-elect. The Immigration law, a real stepping stone to the nationalist ideology of the extreme right, is a betrayal of this solemn commitment made to the French. »

Denouncing a “law of hatred and division”, which “instills the xenophobic poison of national preference”, personalities call on Emmanuel Macron to renounce this text which “fractures the foundations of the Republic, by instilling the xenophobic poison of national preference national”.

The names of the first 150 signatories – a thousand people are said to have signed it – have been revealed, including many artists and politicians. We find the actors Laure Calamy and Éric Cantona. On the political side, the left is only represented by elected socialists (Anne Hidalgo, Martine Aubry Olivier Faure, in particular), Insoumis (Mathilde Panot and Manuel Bompard), communists (Fabien Roussel) and ecologists (Yannick Jadot).

The writers Nicolas Mathieu and Annie Ernaux also signed it, as well as trade unionists Sophie Binet, general secretary of the CGT. The name of Patrick Pelloux, an emergency doctor who was moved by the resignation of Health Minister Aurélien Rousseau on Wednesday, is also cited.

The Immigration law adopted painfully on Tuesday arouses criticism, particularly on the left. The right, which had toughened the text during its passage in the Senate, was also pleased to have succeeded in making the government bend. To calm things down, the government is counting on the Constitutional Council. Emmanuel Macron did not waste a minute to contact the Sages: the text was sent to them this Wednesday. Around ten articles could be censored.
