After the formation of the current Constitutional Democratic Party and the Democratic Party for the People in September last year, three members of the House of Councilors from private labor unions who have been active without affiliation joined the Democratic Party for the People on the 24th.
The three members of the Democratic Party for the People were Tetsuji Isozaki and Makoto Hamaguchi from the Confederation of Automobiles, and Asami Tamura from the UA Zensen. ..
The three belonged to the former Democratic Party for the People, but when the current Constitutional Democratic Party and the Democratic Party for the People were formed in September last year, they wanted to determine the policies of both parties, and they have been working independently regardless of either. It was.
About half a year later, the Democratic Party for the People submitted a notice of admission, saying that their stance was closer, and it was approved at the general assembly of both Houses of Representatives on the 24th.
As a result, the number of members of the Democratic Party for the People's Democratic Party has increased to 19 in both Houses of Representatives.
"I am grateful for the addition of powerful colleagues. I will continue to take the lead and work diligently to expand the party," Tamaki said at the General Assembly.
