Early life

Political career

Morano served as a member of the National Assembly from 2002 to 2008, representing Meurthe-et-Moselle.[1]

Morano served as the Minister for Apprenticeship and Professional Formation under the Minister of Labour, Employment and Health, Xavier Bertrand. She was previously Secretary of State for Family in the government of François Fillon on 18 March 2008.

In September 2015, Morano quoted General Charles de Gaulle on On n'est pas couché, saying that "France is a Judeo-Christian country, of white race".[5] This resulted in her removal as head of the Les Républicains (the former UMP) list for the regional elections in Meurthe-et-Moselle.[5]
