Can the Tajani 2025 Emergency Decree Be Stopped? How to Challenge This Threat to Italian Citizenship

The Tajani Emergency Law Decree, introduced by Minister of Foreign Affairs Antonio Tajani, has stirred up a lot of uncertainty for people pursuing Italian citizenship by descent. The way it was pushed through—with no warning and immediate effect—left many applicants stuck, especially those already facing long delays at Italian consulates. There’s been a lot of talk about whether this Tanjani decree is even constitutional, and how it affects people who’ve spent years preparing their cases. Another point of attention is the minor issue, which under the new rules changes how and when children of Italian citizens can qualify for citizenship, raising questions for families already living in or planning to move to Italy. While some are hoping for changes through Parliament or even a future referendum, others are turning to legal experts and advocacy groups to figure out the next steps.
