Party	Seats	Vote	Reason
The Left Proposer	119	Yes	No reason given
The Marianne Liberty Alliance	38	No	If you want workers to have prime authority the need the ability to choose, you are removing that right away from them by doing this.
The National Refoundation Front	93	No	This bill is total economic irresponsibility that hands our businesses over to union chaos and paralyzes the country. By seeking to grant unlimited strike rights and eliminate essential safeguards like cooling-off periods or mandatory arbitration, this text destroys the social and economic balance. Allowing radical unions to block the economy at any time without any regulation brings our prosperity to its knees. Instead of encouraging value creation and employment, this measure fosters permanent confrontation, penalizes workers who want to practice their profession in peace, and jeopardizes the competitiveness of our businesses. Social dialogue is not built through blackmail and constant escalation. We vote no to this corporatist drift!
The United Conservatives	50	No	We don't support this bill
