At assembly, inflexible majority on individualization against an opposition in unison

The oppositions claimed in unison, Thursday, the “deconjugalization” of the AAH, which aims to calculate the amount of the allocation without taking into account the revenues of the spouse. The majority block rejected it, judging it unfair.

No common ground between the majority and oppositions. Even at the end of the third parliamentary debate carried out in the hemicycle on the “deconjugalization” of the allocation to adults with disabilities (AAH), the discussions followed, Thursday, October 7, to a status quo: the rejection of This measure aimed at decoring the AAH of the recipient’s marital status, which would allow people with disabilities to collect the allocation on the basis of their income, without taking into account those of their spouses.

The four hours of heavy discussions took place as part of a parliamentary “niche”, this time elected representatives of the Republicans (LR). “The filing of a law proposal at first reading at the end of the last session of the legislature has only one goal: doing low policy,” the member is insurrected (modem) Nicolas Turquois.

Facing the majority block (modem, act and the Republic on the move), the tone has been mounted from the benches of the right and the left. “Rarely political power has been so technocratic and disembodied in its approach to major social subjects,” the member (LR) of the lot and rapporteur of the text, Aurélien Pradied. “We are only the echo of an explicit claim of people with disabilities, with the call of twenty-two large organizations and associations,” said the member (PS) of the Gers, Gisèle Biemouret.

“A historical and political misinterpretation”

In June, the communist elected officials had also made the choice to defend this scheme for “social justice”, according to the terms of the Communist Rapporteur Stéphane little, during their day of parliamentary initiative. “I do not understand why the presidential majority is in a historical and political misinterpretation,” said Mr. Little. “It’s also a subject of dignity of the human person,” defended the President of the LR Group, Damien Abad.

A clevant debate that opposed those who believe that the AAH established in 1975 is above all a social minimum that must be conditioned in the same way as the other social aid, like the active solidarity income. (RSA), and those who, on the contrary, feel that it should be considered as a universal allowance and therefore unconditional. “We can all note again the stalemate to which the rejugalization of the AAH conducts and the automatic edge effects it would have on other social minima”, denounced the Secretary of State to Disability, Sophie Cluzel, that 44,000 people would be penalized by the deconjugalization of this aid.
