AID FOR THE LOWEST Widows

This morning we asked the regional government of the Popular Party to allocate additional aid to women in situation of widows receive pensions that are below the poverty line (less than 593 / month). Nearly 58,000 people receive a widow's pension in our region. The regional average of these pensions is 510 euros per month. Only ahead of Galicia and the Balearic Islands.Thus, women's pension situation in our region, they lie third in the queue in all the 17 regions. To get an idea, the average of what is perceived here is up to 143 euros monthly pension unless they are perceived in the Basque Country (653 / month) or 116 fewer than in Madrid (626 / month). However, these average quantities. Indeed, the stark reality is that in our region, thousands of widows living well below that threshold, with pensions that barely exceeds 300 euros per month. Very hard. For that reason, as has been done in autonomous social cues from the Socialist Party in the Murcia region have asked the PP government's involvement, for these fellow citizens perceive, at least the Minimum wage level (SMI), which is encrypted in 624 per month for this year. They poorer than men And why do impact on women Because of the collective of people who are widowed, a large economic gap that went in favor of males. According to the Panel, European Community Household, women, after the death of a spouse, support a reduction in revenue of up to 45 more than men who are in the same situation. This social injustice occurs because many of them have devoted more effort to work at home and care for the children to their personal working life. For that reason, as have the presidents of other autonomous communities, the Government should be brave Valcarcel, supportive and sensitive to this situation and help to provide further widow's pension worth at Murcia. Because the pain of losing her partner, these women joined the complications of having to become true heroes of the administration and savings. And despite this, many times their efforts are not adequate to meet household expenses, let alone the cost of extras such as common and basic repair of a damaged home. We believe that, regardless of whether Social Security is the regulator of pensions for the entire country and also outside that they are governed unanimously by contribution levels, the regional governments should support and improved by aid complementary. The Government of Jos Luis Rodr guez Zapatero working since 2004 to increase the quality of life for families and vulnerable people. In his five years in office, the lowest pensions have seen an increase of almost 30 . An effort, we ask who is also encouraged from the regional administration. Also the non-contributory and minimum income This would be round, if the Executive Valc rcel complementary to non-contributory pensions and minimum income for social integration to achieve the value of the minimum wage. Is it impossible Absolutely not.
