Guillaume Chiche (born 30 March 1986) is a French politician who was elected to the French National Assembly on 18 June 2017, representing the department of Deux-Sèvres.[1] He was considered a close ally of President Emmanuel Macron.[2] He was elected as a member of La République En Marche!, but left the party and in May 2020, he was one of the 17 initial members who formed the short-lived Ecology Democracy Solidarity group.[3] Since 2020, he is a member of The New Democrats.
Political career
[edit]In parliament, Chiche serves as member of the Committee on Social Affairs. In addition to his committee assignments, he is part of the parliamentary friendship groups with Argentina and Brazil.[4]
In January 2019, Chiche joined the LREM executive board. In that capacity, he shares responsibility with Laurent Saint-Martin for the party's policy planning.[5]
Political positions
[edit]In a 2018 parliamentary report, Chiche proposed the abolition of income splitting for the purposes of assessing personal income tax.[6]
In 2019, Chiche led (with Aurore Bergé) a group of LREM members who advocated for broad access to assisted reproductive technology for all women (Lesbian or single) (ART). Unlike Bergé, he supported the authorization of post-mortem ART, a motion which was rejected by a parliamentary majority.[7]
In July 2019, Chiche decided not to align with his parliamentary group's majority and became one of 52 LREM members who abstained from a vote on the French ratification of the European Union’s Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) with Canada.[8]
