The proposal signed by me comes from a wide sharing within the majority and from listening to the opposition and now it will be up to the speakers Francesco Forciniti and Emanuele Fiano to carry on the text in committee I wish them a good job. " This was stated by the chairman of the Constitutional Affairs Committee, Giuseppe Brescia, as well as the presenter of the electoral reform text scheduled in the Chamber on 27 July. "I am aware that the priorities of the Italians today are different and we are dealing with the relaunch and simplification decrees. However, it is important to continue and conclude the work on the electoral law as soon as possible to avoid making reforms at the end of the legislature based on the polls of the moment and to the illusory conveniences of someone. This bad habit must end. Our ambitious goal must be to write the rules of the game, not to make the parties comfortable, but in the exclusive interest of the citizens ".
