In preparation for the upper house election in the summer, there is a growing movement within the opposition to create an environment in which it is easier for women to run in order to increase the support of the party by increasing the number of female members.
Of these, the Constitutional Democratic Party has set a goal of making half of the candidates for the upper house election in the summer women, and a specialized support team has been set up so that incumbent female members can give advice on how to proceed with the election campaign and baby. We will subsidize the costs of sitters and nursing care services.
In addition, the Nippon Ishin no Kai has newly established a system to subsidize babysitters and temporary childcare expenses, and the Democratic Party for the People can choose services that candidates want to use from many menus such as babysitters and housekeeping services. I am considering.
On the other hand, the Communist Party says that it will continue to provide long-standing support, such as party members and supporters taking over the nursery school and school of female candidates, and pay attention to whether the efforts of each party will lead to an increase in female candidates. Will be.
