“We will support pension reform“, assures Wednesday September 21 on franceinfo Laurent Marcangeli, president of the Horizons group and deputy of Corse-du-Sud. He was received today by Elisabeth Borne like all the group presidents in the National Assembly and the Senate to prepare the return to parliament, and in particular the thorny issue of pensions. “I was consulted, like the other groups, on the legislative calendar until the end of the year, and on the PLF, the finance bill, and the PLFSS, the security finance bill social“, details Laurent Marcangeli.
On the possibility envisaged by the government to pass the pension reform through an amendment in the PLFSS, the president of the Horizons group affirms that “the arbitration has not been rendered“. Elisabeth Borne “listen to us“, he assures. Laurent Marcangeli repeats the position of his group within the majority: “We will support pension reform. If the Prime Minister commits amendments to the PLFSS, we will be there“. He insists on the “reformist position“at Horizons.”Yes to reform, no to the status quo“, declares the deputy.
For a timetable and a method to be defined for the pension reform, “it is necessary that the President of the Republic and the Prime Minister meet“, he assures, while Emmanuel Macron is still in New York for the General Assembly of the UN.
Laurent Marcangeli prefers not “comment“the position of the Modem, a majority group that opposes a forced passage of the pension reform. It defends this reform, because according to him, “the pension system has injustices and flaws“. And if “the government decides to put it on the agenda of our next debates, the Horizons group will be at the sides of the government on the road to reform“, he hammers.
