Overview
- The Chamber's presidency, which announced the decision Wednesday, suspended 22 MPs for five days and 10 for four for occupying the press room on January 30.
- The sit-in blocked a conference on “remigration” organized by Lega deputy Domenico Furgiuele that planned speakers from CasaPound, Veneto Fronte Skinheads, Forza Nuova and Rete dei Patrioti, and the Chamber then canceled all press events that day and revoked external access.
- Officials judged 22 lawmakers more culpable because they took the speakers' bench, while 10 others faced shorter bans for filling seats to crowd the room.
- Fabio Rampelli said the suspensions will take effect on a staggered schedule, with affected deputies notified of their dates.
- In a separate 11–10 vote, the presidency will ask the full Chamber next week to raise a conflict of attribution against Rome prosecutors in the Giusy Bartolozzi case, intensifying a broader clash cited by PD, M5S and Avs as evidence of double standards.
