The political groups of the PSOE, Now Murcia and Cambiemos Murcia will defend in plenary next Thursday an initiative to urge the Government of Spain and the Congress of Deputies to heed the claim of the State Board Pro-Referendum of Pensions (MERP ), Promoting a reform of the Constitution that includes the express prohibition that any government, current or future, can cut or privatize, totally or partially, the Public Pension System.

The Socialist Party, now Murcia and Cambiemos Murcia, raise the inclusion in the Spanish Constitution of an article that includes as a constitutional obligation the maintenance of the real purchasing power of pensions and, therefore, the impossibility that any kind of measure, whether Cutbacks, tax increases, co-pays, increased rates for basic services or any other, may affect pensions (except those that are favorable).

The three parties in the opposition have an impact on the important process of deterioration suffered by the Public Pension System in recent years, especially between 2013 and 2016. "It is necessary to react to protect the pension system over any correlation of political forces , Regardless of the color of the government or the situation of the country. All citizens deserve that public pensions be treated as the backbone of the Social State, a right that remains outside any political dispute or ideological difference ", have indicated.

PSOE, Now Murcia and Cambiemos Murcia join the conviction of the MERP that it is necessary to promote and promote the social movement around the defense of pensions and the need to review the legal framework by promoting a reform to modify the article that Establishes the guarantee of pensions, prohibiting any type of privatization and maintaining the real purchasing power of pensions.

"The collection of a public pension is an unqualified right proclaimed by the Spanish Constitution and by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. It is obliged to ensure decent and sufficient pensions that do not depend, under any circumstances, on political will, but are guaranteed by Right ", have concluded.
