Camera dei Deputati

The Camera dei Deputati, or Chamber of Deputies, is the lower house of Italy's Parliament. It plays a key role in making national laws, approving budgets, and overseeing the government. Members, called deputies, are elected by Italian citizens through direct voting. The Chamber works alongside the Senate to debate and pass legislation, ensuring representative democracy. It also has the authority to scrutinize government actions and propose laws, making it central to Italy’s political system and legislative process.
