Political career

In parliament, Lang serves as member of the Committee on Cultural Affairs and Education.[2] In this capacity, she was – alongside Fannette Charvier – her parliamentary group's rapporteur on l'école de la confiance, legislation introduced by Minister of Education Jean-Michel Blanquer to restructure the French education system from nursery through to middle school.[3]

Political positions

In July 2019, Lang decided not to align with her parliamentary group's majority and became one of 52 LREM members who abstained from a vote on the French ratification of the European Union’s Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) with Canada.[4]

For the 2020 Paris election, Lang went against the party line and endorsed Cédric Villani as a candidate for mayor.[5]

gollark: Also that some people may not actually *like* it.
gollark: <@!332271551481118732> Cost. It would be fine if universities had reasonable pricing, and they do not really.
gollark: "You pick basically whatever, and we pay for it" isn't really a monopsony; people still have demand for each university, but the version of demand as "willing and able to pay for it" just becomes "willing to have it".
gollark: If the government throws piles of money at free education, you would, presumably, eventually get the majority of people going through university or something. Which would be nice, if it did not also cost a vast amount of money. And at the same time you dilute... whatever the degree is supposed to represent... and I don't really know what happens.
gollark: But that university has basically no incentive to have reasonable prices.
