The Constitutional Union places employment and purchasing power at the heart of its electoral platform.

On Monday evening, September 7, in Casablanca, the Constitutional Union (UC) party presented its electoral platform for the 2026 legislative elections during a meeting attended by prominent media representatives, Political Bureau members, and party candidates. The party unveiled its key commitments and choices for the upcoming period, placing employment, purchasing power, and stimulating a productive economy at the top of its priorities.

The party’s Secretary-General, Mohamed Joudar, opened the presentation by highlighting several economic and social challenges facing Morocco, chief among them the situation of young people outside the labor market and educational or training systems (NEETs). He noted that approximately 2.9 million young people are currently not in employment, education, or training.

Joudar placed these statistics at the heart of the debate regarding the national economy's ability to create sufficient opportunities for young people and open avenues for their professional integration. He emphasized that the next phase requires positioning job creation at the core of economic policy and linking economic growth more directly to employment opportunities and household income improvement.

The Secretary-General also addressed the pressures exerted by inflation and the rising cost of living on Moroccan families in recent years, which have led to shrinking disposable incomes and increased costs for daily necessities.

In the same context, he referred to the proliferation of intermediaries within various markets and distribution chains, which widens the gap between farm-gate/factory prices and final consumer prices. He stressed the importance of boosting market competition and transparency to protect consumers and curb practices that lead to unjustified price increases.

The electoral platform translates these priorities into a primary national commitment titled: “A Productive Economy, More Job Opportunities, and Stronger Purchasing Power.” This is built on establishing a more productive, competitive, and equitable economic model whose impact is measured not only by growth rates, but also by its capacity to generate jobs, improve incomes, protect purchasing power, and expand economic initiative.

The Constitutional Union places employment at the core of its economic vision, paying special attention to young people's access to their first job opportunity, strengthening the link between training and economic needs, and supporting private enterprise and national businesses as key drivers of job and value creation.

The party also proposes improving the business environment, simplifying administrative procedures, and expanding access to finance, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and innovative startups. Concurrently, it advocates for fair competition and fighting against rent-seeking, monopolies, and market practices that limit equal opportunity.

The program links purchasing power protection to a broader approach than temporary price interventions. It focuses on strengthening the productive economy, creating stable jobs, enhancing market transparency, supporting local production, and mitigating factors that drive up the cost of goods and services for families.

The party considers that the economic challenge of the upcoming period is not merely achieving growth, but ensuring that its impact reaches all social segments and regions across the Kingdom—translating growth into tangible opportunities in employment, income, investment, and improved living conditions.

The Constitutional Union presents its platform as a project based on combining private initiative with the strategic role of the State, and balancing production support with economic and social stability. Through this vision, the party seeks to build an economy that offers broader opportunities to citizens, making merit and fair competition the foundation of economic progress.

This economic pillar represents one of the party’s main commitments within its broader electoral program, which also encompasses priorities related to equity, social protection, spatial justice, advanced regionalization, restoring trust in institutions, and preparing for upcoming economic, climate, and technological shifts.
