Bonetti: reform for the country of today and tomorrow
«I am grateful for the transversal contribution to the re-composition of positions at the parliamentary level. The reform of the Family Act must belong to everyone, it must not have the identity of a political party, because it is a reform for which we must all make ourselves responsible, it is a reform for the country of today and for the country of tomorrow. Through this vote we propose a new way of doing politics that requires mediation, honesty, attention to the times and respect for words, as Tina Anselmi said ». Thus the Minister for Equal Opportunities and the Family Elena Bonetti in the Senate for the final vote on the Family Act.
