Commitment to Galicia (Spanish: Compromiso por Galicia, CxG) is a Galician political party with a Galician nationalist, progressive and socialdemocratic ideology.
CxG proposed to reform the Galician electoral law to create a single Galician constituency, in both the autonomic and general elections, the implementation of open lists as well as a better of public transparency and promoting citizenship participation by the ILPs, the removal of the provinces and the limitation of mandates of the elected officials.
CxG considers Galicia as a "nation in terms society and culture". Unlike other Galician nationalist organizations, CxG does not want independence or total sovereignty for Galicia, but a multinational and republican Spain. The party also accepts capitalism, but defends a strog welfare state and social democratic public policies. The party is also pro-European.
The party was formed in December 2012, in its first National Congress. The previous organizations were partially dissolved, not allowing the new organization double militancy.
The party was formed after the rupture of Máis Galiza with the Galician Nationalist Bloc. Máis Galiza had contacts with other Galician nationalist forces like Encontro Irmandiño or Espazo Ecosocialista Galego in order to form a new Galician nationalist organization, alternive to the Galician Nationalist Bloc. In May 2012 Máis Galiza announced the creation of Compromiso por Galicia, along with Espazo Ecosocialista Galego. The Galician Nationalist Party-Galicianist Party (PNG-PG) also joined the project. The historical Galician Coalition (CG) was also interested, having attended their leaders to acts of the new organización. On 21 June 2012 CxG announced the incorporation of a sector of the collective Unity of the Galician Left, a splinter group of the Socialists' Party of Galicia based mainly in Vigo, including the Socialist ex-deputy Miguel Barros.
