"The president intends to once again to coax the country's workers say that with this increase in the minimum wage now have the world's highest wages. Nothing could be farther from reality. In 2010, inflation was in the order of 27 percent and the estimate for 2011 is projected at 30 percent, and pulverized This has eroded the real wages of workers, "he said.

announced that there will soon be a new mobilization of older adults to the National Assembly in order to deliver more signatures endorsing the request made by this important sector of the country to amend the Food Act in their favor .
He called on the deputies of the ruling party to fulfill its role as legislator, "work based on the people who elected them and not continue to maintain servile attitude to the Head of State not to discuss the social laws which both claim the people of Venezuela. "

"Today more than ever there is sufficient reason for workers and retirees to protest, demanding the government a general increase in salaries and wages for all workers. Also requires the National Assembly to discuss the reform of the Food Act and in support of the struggle being carried out by nurses to protect their labor rights. "
