Biography

Cerquetti was a member of the Italian Communist Party (PCI) and began his career as Mayor of Cinisello Balsamo, serving from 1970 to 1979.[2] In 1979, he was elected to the Chamber of Deputies and served in the 8th and 9th Legislatures. In his first term, he served on the Weapons and Military Use Committee from 5 March 1981 to 18 March 1982 and from 10 June 1982 to 11 July 1983.[3] He also served on the Defense Committee from 11 July 1979 to 11 July 1983.[4] He heavily focused on military and security issues and signed a bill on local police regulations on 12 May 1980,[5] and one on the use of armed forces on 27 April 1983.[6]

Cerquetti was re-elected in 1983 and served on the Elections Committee from 19 July 1983 to 1 July 1987.[7] He also served on the Defense Committee from 12 July 1983 to 1 July 1987.[8] He served on the Italian Parliamentary Delegation to the NATO Parliamentary Assembly from 15 March 1984 to 1 July 1987.[9] After his time in the Chamber of Deputies, he served as Mayor of Cusano Milanino from 1990 to 1994, a period in which he switched from the Italian Communist Party to the Democratic Party of the Left.[10] He ran for re-election in 1994, but experienced conflicts within his party. He was supported by Lega Nord and the Italian People's Party, but failed to be re-elected.[11]
