Unaware of the controversies about the pacts with Vox, Alberto Núñez Feijóo has begun to reveal his program, which includes more exemptions in the minimum family income from the second child, tax benefits for companies that hire mothers or a bank of hours to reconcile.
In an event on family and social policies organized by the PP at the Arzobispo Fonseca de Salamanca school, which the popular leader closed yesterday, Feijóo avoided the controversy over the pacts, but reiterated the need to "add many Spaniards" to his project to be able to "govern directly with the votes that come out of the ballot box". The only references to Vox, implicit but without citing Santiago Abascal's party, were those of the president of Castilla y León, Alfonso Fernández Mañueco, to claim his equality policies and affirm that "not a single step has been taken behind in terms of social rights", that in his community "advances have been made in the fight against male violence" and aid to families, "to all families", has increased.
Feijóo talked about family, and his, even Eva, his partner, with whom he has a 5-year-old son. He did this after listening to a woman who had her first child at the age of 44, due to her professional activity, a representative of an autism association and a mother of a daughter with dysphoria contrary to the trans law.
For births, strengthen assisted reproduction services, subsidize companies for indefinite contracts for mothers, increase the family minimum exempt from the second child and the benefit for dependent child, which would be collected from the fifth month of pregnancy.
In conciliation, Feijó offered that workers have the right to a four-month leave before the child is eight years old, five days' leave a year and extend to 26 weeks maternity and paternity leave for single-parent families.
In education, he proposed opening schools longer, maintaining special education schools and free early childhood education. Regarding minors and the Internet, he opted for a code of ethics, signed with companies that manufacture phones and create content to regulate access to certain information, pornography and abuse on networks, with attention to all forms of violence against minors and cyberbullying.
The leader of the PP contrasted his proposals with the policies of the Sánchez Government, which, in his opinion, "have been a lot of banners and few measures".
