About Sandro RUOTOLO

Sandro Ruotolo is an Italian MEP representing the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats (S&D), the European Parliament's centre-left grouping that advocates for social justice, workers' rights, and progressive policies across the EU. As an independent politician from Italy, Ruotolo brings a non-partisan perspective to his European parliamentary work while aligning with the S&D's broader agenda of promoting equality, environmental sustainability, and democratic values. A prominent journalist and television presenter before entering politics, Ruotolo built his career in investigative journalism, particularly focusing on organized crime and corruption issues in southern Italy. His transition from media to politics reflects his continued commitment to transparency and accountability in public life. Ruotolo maintains a reasonable engagement level in parliamentary activities, with an attendance record of 80.2% that sits slightly below the European Parliament average of around 82%, and participates in 80% of votes, casting 1,502 ballots out of 1,873 possible votes during his current full term.
