Ihe pension reform is beginning its final lap. Senators have begun to work on the bill while the unions sharpen their weapons to prepare for their big mobilization on March 7. One last round, and will the pension file finally be closed for several decades?

Nothing certain… The subject of the universal pension system, abandoned at the start of the pandemic in 2020, has indeed made a comeback, with the amendment tabled by MP Marc Ferracci, economist and vice-president of the Renaissance group.

Point : During the examination of the text in the National Assembly, you put the draft universal plan back on the table, via an amendment which was voted on by the deputies. Why pull this idea out of the closet?
