Member of the Riigikogu

Üldinfo

Both in my journalist work and in my active political work, I have always protected the weaker party and strived to ensure that everybody would be offered equal opportunities. As a member of the Riigikogu, I continue my activities to ensure that people would receive bigger salaries and higher pensions. I stand for the rights of persons with disabilities, for better availability of medical care and for a fair tax system.
