IU Says Díaz Bid Not Settled as Sumar Sets Nov. 22 Conference to Define Its Course

The gathering is designed to present a welfare refoundation with universal measures aimed at younger voters.

Overview

  • Movimiento Sumar has formally convened a political conference for Saturday, November 22, to set its identity, program and alliance roadmap for the 2027 cycle.
  • Planned flagship measures include free public transport, a universal child benefit of €200 per child up to age 18, and a €20,000 “universal inheritance” for young people from age 23.
  • Leaders frame the platform around laborism and predistributive, universal rights intended to counter inequality before it takes root.
  • A central goal is to regain support among younger voters and mobilize those inclined to abstain, with reporting citing CIS data that roughly one in four under 30 would choose Vox.
  • Sumar says it wants a broad unity ticket to the left of the PSOE, yet a reported Podemos veto and unresolved leadership questions persist as IU presses for joint primaries and its chief says Yolanda Díaz’s candidacy remains open.
