European Commission
@EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu  ·  activity timestamp 2 weeks ago

"We know how hard times have been for so many families.
How costs have rocketed up.
How people are making sacrifices to make ends meet."

In her #SOTEU speech, President von der Leyen made it clear: we must tackle poverty at its roots.

That's why we'll soon launch a bold European Anti-Poverty Strategy to eradicate poverty by 2050, reinforced by a strong Child Guarantee.

This isn’t just policy.
It’s social justice.

Help shape our first-ever Anti-Poverty Strategy: https://link.europa.eu/7kW3k9

Above the word "Poverty," smaller, dark blue text reads, "Our plan to help eradicate." Below the pen, a hashtag is visible: "#SOTEU," followed by the European Union logo

@EUCommission Some form of #UBI would go down nicely about now, paired with progressive enough taxation. Are we bold enough to go there?

@EUCommission Rent control, progressive taxation, and no tax avoidance it is then!

@EUCommission I almost forgot: maximize public ownership and public value of infrastructure, which means no AI hyper scaling for private corporations.
