Debora Serracchiani (born 10 November 1970) is an Italian politician. Born in Rome, she is a member of Democratic Party, and was president of the Italian region of Friuli-Venezia Giulia. In 2016, she proposed and got the approval of a regional law which officially abolished provinces of the Friuli-Venezia Giulia, moving their competences to the lower and the upper administrative level, which were respectively the Italian comune and the region.[1] Friuli-Venezia Giulia was the first region to implement the 2014 Delrio national law.[2]
Serracchiani served as a Member of the European Parliament (MEP) of the European Parliament from 2008-13 as a member of the PD. She was also a member of the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats, an alliance within the European Parliament.[citation needed] As a MEP and regional leader of the Democratic Party (PD), she narrowly defeated incumbent President Renzo Tondo of The People of Freedom (PdL) 39.4% to 39.0% in the Friuli-Venezia Giulia regional election held on 21–22 April 2013, and she took office on 22 April 2013. Serracchiani is the second woman to hold the office of President of Friuli-Venezia Giulia, since Alessandra Guerra of Lega Nord Friuli (LNF) from 1994–95.[3]
Serracchiani is Director of Institutional Relations of the Italy-USA Foundation.
