Let’s go United!

In this new year, join forces, our skills to make our country a place where reign ‘the love of Tèt Ansanm’. have the imperious obligation to work, more than ever, in agreement with my fathers conscripted to defend the interests of the Nation by laws implementing new applications of change project for a transformed country.

I pledge to push for the promotion of women’s leadership I pledge to push for the promotion of women’s “leadership” in order to continue to defend the rights of Haitian women and to work to eradicate all forms of economic violence against them. Always in the spirit of establishing a lasting democratic system for the benefit of the Nation, I will devote myself to taking vital decisions in relation to my parliamentary functions in order to equip the country with a Permanent Electoral Council, since 2018 is a year devoted to the preparation of the elections.
