In a quick review we were able to verify that what is said in the proposal is openly lying or misunderstood when talking about education, health and housing. “This is really serious,” Minister Giorgio Jackson said. Although it is a website, former constituent Giovanna Grandón warned that they also deliver door-to-door brochures in Puente Alto.
Minister Segpres Giorgio Jackson criticized and betrayed on social networks a organization linked to Rejection that distributes brochures with false information in areas of Santiago on the proposal for a new Constitution.
Specifically, it is about Constitutional Facilitators, a web page that – although it is not openly against the text – labels the document as a “bad Constitution”, incorporating elements similar to the site of the dissolved body in its portal.
“This is really serious.. A website linked to an organization registered in the Servel as an adherent to the Rejection occupies the official institutional image of the Constitutional Convention to generate deception and confusion regarding the plebiscite”, launched the minister.

The ex-constituent Giovanna Grandónalso known as Aunt Pikachu, who justly represented the 12th district, also warned the public about the delivery of flyers with false information.
“Neighbors of Puente Alto denounce that people are doing door to door with identifications with the logo and colors of the Convention, disseminating and delivering printed material with false information. Spreading false information is wanting to boycott Chile,” she wrote.

How do you support the Rejection of the new Constitution?
Platform Context He found the pamphlets, in which Constitutional Facilitators attack, for example, what is stipulated on housing.
Under the title of right to property, he is alarmed with “the end of home ownership”.
What is certain is that in its transitory provisions, if the Approval is won, President Gabriel Boric has to send to Congress a project “on decent housing and citywhich adapts current housing regulations and regulates the aspects contemplated in articles 51 (right to decent and adequate housing) and 52 (the right to the city and territory is a collective right aimed at the common good)”.
On health issues, the organization states that “the Chilean families will have worse health given that workers will not be able to use the private health system charged to their paid social security contributions”.
In its article 44.7, the proposal of the Convention stipulates that “the National Health System may be made up of public and private providers” and that the law (again, Congress) will determine the requirements and procedures for private providers to join this system”.
Constitutional Facilitators also lies when talking about education.
“There will be only one free educational project, which will be designed by the State. This seriously affects the freedom of education”, they say.
Although the proposal speaks at length about the benefit dimension of the right to education, it also makes it clear in its article 41 that freedom of education is guaranteed and it is the duty of the State to respect it”.
Along with establishing that this includes the freedom of attorneys and
tutors to choose the type of education of the people in their charge, also guarantees the academic freedom of teachers and educators.
