Sánchez says that the Housing Law "transforms a problem into a right" and urges PP to "read it" before appealing it

BILBAO, 15 Abr. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The President of the Government and Secretary General of the PSOE, Pedro Sánchez, highlighted this Saturday in Bilbao that the new Housing Law is going to "transform a huge problem into a right", as "our Constitution says", and has criticized that the PP , as he does "with each advance, he has already said that he is going to appeal it" without having "read" it. "Wait a bit, read it, debate and then look and decide," he appealed.

Sánchez has participated in the tribute that the Basque socialists have paid to the historic leader of the PSE-EE Rodolfo Ares, who died on January 26, in an act in Bilbao in which they have intervened, in addition to the President of the Government and Secretary General of the PSOE , the former lehendakari Patxi López and the general secretary of the PSE, Eneko Andueza, among others.

In his speech, the president stressed that "being a socialist is fighting for dignity", while "there are people" on the right "identify reforms with cuts".

"We identify the reforms with salary dignity, that is why we raised the minimum interprofessional wage. With dignity in pensions, that is why we guarantee the revaluation of pensions according to the CPI. And dignity in access to housing, that is why we have approved the first Law of the History of Housing Democracy", he pointed out.

In this line, Sánchez has stressed that the Housing Law is going to "transform a huge problem", especially for young people throughout the country, "into what our Constitution says, which is a right, not a problem". "That is what we are going to achieve with this first Housing law in the history of our democracy", he has insisted.

The President of the Government has regretted that "the PP has already said that it is going to appeal it" before the Constitutional Court. "Each advance is appealed to the Constitutional Court: the law of equal marriage, the law of voluntary interruption of pregnancy, the euthanasia law, of course the housing law. We already know who they defend. They do not defend the majority, they defend the a few, those who are up there", he criticized.

In any case, he has censured that he is going to "appeal not even having read the housing law." "Wait a bit, read it, discuss it and then look and decide", appealed Sánchez, who has warned that "the future always gives reason to progress" as, as he has indicated, happened with the launch of the National System of Health and Dependency or the Minimum Vital Income, among other measures.
