Constituency
Do has intervened on several local issues.
In Noisiel, following the relocation of Nestlé France, the largest employer in her constituency, Do interpellated Delphine Gény-Stephann, Secretary of State to the Minister of the Economy, on 22 February 2018 at the hemicycle. She confirmed that the Government would ensure that all accompanying measures were offered to 1800 employees.[28]
In particular, she supported communes in her constituency to benefit from the Police Security Daily (PSQ) experimentation with the Ministry of the Interior Gérard Collomb in November 2017. Thus, the municipalities of Champs-sur-Marne, Emerainville and Noisiel had responded positively to the request of the Deputy to support their candidature sending to the Minister of the Interior. Consequently, the municipality of Noisiel was selected on February to benefit from the PSQ experimentation in 2019.[29]
Do is also committed to the construction of the new public transport network of the Grand Paris Express (GPE). She mobilized to give priority to her constituency as part of the new GPE implementation schedule in January 2018, at the GPE seminar organized by Prime Minister Edouard Philippe and the Minister of Transport Elisabeth Borne.[30] Line 15 South (Noisy-Champs) commissioning was planned for 2024 by the Government[31] because it is one of the lines that benefit the greatest number of Parisians.[32] Following the postponement of the section commissioning between Chelles and Noisy-Champs on line 16,[33] Do communicated with various actors (local elected officials, prefects, ministers) to create a conducive dialogue to the negotiation of new timetable and the development of alternative solutions, efforts ended with the promise that the commissioning would finally be carried out before 2030. The newspaper La Marne on Wednesday, 9 May, devoted a section on the actions of the deputy on this file.
Following the floods that occurred in Seine-et-Marne in January 2018, Do interpellated the Minister of the Ecological and Solidarity Transition Nicolas Hulot and his Secretary of State Brune Poirson on 23 January 2018 during questions to the Government.[34] Its intervention has helped to encourage the construction of facilities in all municipalities where the Seine flows to prevent flooding.[35]
Then, in May 2018, following damage caused by new floods, she again asked Nicolas Hulot for the Seine-et-Marne municipalities benefit from the recognition for natural disaster.[36] In September 2018, a hundred municipalities of Seine-et-Marne were recognized of natural disaster [34][35], including 4 cities of his constituency (Brou-Sur-Chantereine, Chelles, Lognes and Vaires-sur-Marne).[37][38]
Do supported structuring projects for municipalities in the 10th constituency of Seine-et-Marne, in the context of calls for projects on behalf of the Local Investment Support Staffing (DSIL).[39] In total, 11.5 million euros in loans were granted to the Seine-et-Marne municipalities in 2018. Three communes in the 10th constituency receive funding of more than 1 million euros. In Champs-sur-Marne, the project[40] for the construction of sustainable housing receives funding of 250,000 euros and five families will be able to move out of slums. In June 2018, Stéphanie Do intervened with the Prime Minister in favor of this project. In Chelles, five projects receive funding for a total budget of 720 118 euros. Among them, an endowment of more than 237 650 euros will be paid to bring children's games up to standard and secure. Finally, in Brou-sur-Chantereine, the State invested 94 045 euros notably to enlarge the refectory of the Suzanne Demetz school.
Since 2017, Do has been working with parents of students from Champs-sur-Marne, Noisiel and Chelles to improve the conditions of school transportation for children on several sections of line 25 in Seine-et-Marne. Indeed, city buses unsuitable for school transport had replaced coaches. She brought the demands of parents of students to Île-de-France Mobilités. She obtained then the change of rolling stock for the Gournay - Champs-sur-Marne section.[41]
