The civil society group Collective Good (Bien Común) is suggesting that the composition of the National Council of the Magistracy, the organization that chooses the higher court judges, be changed. The recommendation is part of a list of 20 made by the group. Others include removing political hierarchical members from the high courts and increasing to 3% of GDP the government investment in public health. The proposals were made on 19 May 2019 during an event held at the Club Mauricio Báez in Santo Domingo.
Other proposals are the progressive increase in the taxes paid by those with more income, wage increases, more credit for productive activities, auditing the public debt, and the total restructuring of the state.
The movement calls for all forces to join to defeat the ruling PLD in the 2020 general elections.
