In 2008, Migliore was a candidate for the Chamber on the Rainbow Left list, but was not elected due to the failure to cross the electoral threshold of 4%.
In 2009, Migliore left the PRC, to follow Nichi Vendola in his new party, the Movement for the Left (later Left Ecology Freedom).
In 2013, Migliore returned to the Chamber of Deputies and became the parliamentary group leader of SEL.[1] On 18 June 2014, he resigned as parliamentary group leader, following the controversy born after the decision to vote in favor of the IRPEF Decree about the 80 euros in payroll for the medium-low incomes, proposed by the Renzi Cabinet.[2] On 22 October 2014 he finally joined the Democratic Party.[3] In 2016 he was appointed Undersecretary of State for Justice in the Renzi Cabinet,[4] position confirmed also in the next Gentiloni Cabinet (2016–18).
In 2018, Migliore was re-elected to the Chamber of Deputies.
