I have voted in favour of the report that aims to ensure a strong empowerment for consumers in the green transition, by tackling unfair commercial practices and by enabling citizens to choose products that are more durable, repairable and sustainable

We want to live in a Europe, where all workers earn a living wage, all families can afford housing, and no child has to grow up in poverty. Therefore, I have voted in favour of this resolution that calls on the Commission, EU governments and all the political groups to join our fight for living wages, decent work and robust welfare. From wages, to public services, to equality, and the cost of living, Europe faces many challenges. Although the ambition regarding the digital and green transitions has been placed high on the European agenda, this has not been the case for the European Social Agenda yet. The green and digital transitions can only be successful if integrated alongside with a strong social agenda. The European Parliament has also set a list of social objectives to be reached by 2030, which we believe, should be adopted together with the Action Plan in order to guide its implementation.
