El apoyo del sindicato de inquilinas a los dos decretos de vivienda eleva la presión sobre Podemos

“Que ningún partido se atreva a traicionar con un voto en contra el clamor social expresado estos días en las calles”, sostiene la Confederación, que llama a movilizaciones este jueves

El apoyo del sindicato de inquilinas a los dos decretos de vivienda eleva la presión sobre Podemos

The Confederation of Women Tenants' Unions, which leads the recent housing social uprising, urged political forces to back the two decrees approved by the Council of Ministers on Tuesday, according to a statement. While acknowledging the measures as urgent and unable to overturn decades of policies that turned housing into a business, the Confederation sees them as "an opportunity window."

Consequently, it calls for demonstrations outside all Spanish town halls on Thursday to demand the Congress of Deputies validate both decrees and prohibit any party from betraying public outcry voiced in streets these days. This union's voice amplifies pressure on Podemos, which has yet to reveal its voting stance.
