đŸ‡ȘđŸ‡ș💰 EU-Budget 2028–2034: Setzt die Politik falsche PrioritĂ€ten? Der neue EAPN-Bericht warnt: AufrĂŒstung & Wettbewerb drohen soziale Rechte zu verdrĂ€ngen. 93M+ Menschen sind in der EU von Armut bedroht!

Forderungen:
📈 30% des ESF+ fĂŒr soziale Inklusion
đŸ§‘â€đŸŒ 20 Mrd. € fĂŒr die Kindergarantie
⚖ Faire Steuern fĂŒr Konzerne

ArmutsbekĂ€mpfung ist kein Luxus, sondern eine politische Entscheidung! 👇

RT by @EPPGroup: The possible misuse of nearly €10 billion of Next Generation EU funds in Spain would represent one of the biggest scandals in recent European history. European recovery funds must never be used to cover ordinary state expenditure such as pensions.

If these allegations are confirmed, we are facing a serious abuse of European taxpayers’ money. We will raise this issue in the Committee on Budgetary Control and demand full transparency and accountability. Europe cannot tolerate any misuse of recovery funds. #EUBudget #NextGenerationEU

RT by @EU_Budget: We’ve seen how the misuse of veto powers can delay the decisive actions the EU needs in times of crisis. The crisis mechanism in the next #EUBudget, activated through QMV, is one of the ways to address this. Rather than weakening it, we should focus on its strengthening.

RT by @EU_CoR: We 100% back @RoxanaMinzatu & @RaffaeleFitto 's commitment to shape good strategies on fighting poverty and on the freedom to stay

This great job must not be wasted in an #EUBudget where the ESF disappears while investments are centralised & shifted from weak to strong areas

One goal: help eradicate poverty by 2050.

We are launching our first-ever EU anti-poverty strategy, aiming to prevent and address poverty in all its dimensions, from birth to old age.
