Against: 161 · Abstained: 0 · Not voted: 187
| Party | Seats | Vote | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|
| National Conservative Rally | 0 | Abstain | Retirement at 55 and the 35-hour weekly maximum would be a disaster for Marianne's economy and a mandatory quota for women's is a shame for our gender equality. GO NATIONAL-CONSERVATIVE!! |
| New Popular Front Proposer | 0 | Yes | No reason given |
| The Greens Of Marianne | 0 | Yes | The Greens supports all of these proposals. |
| The Marianne Liberty Alliance | 72 | No | While we may agree with some provisions of the bill, the pro-poverty work restrictions are not something we can support on ethical grounds. |
| The National Refoundation Front | 89 | No | This reform is nothing more than a project to dismantle our society under the guise of social progress. Imposing mandatory gender quotas in our armed forces is an insult to merit and military effectiveness: aptitude must take precedence over ideology. Likewise, the brutal exclusion of funding for faith-based schools is a direct attack on our cultural and spiritual heritage, aimed at molding our children into a forced secularist uniform. We refuse to sacrifice the nation's competitiveness and the sense of duty on the altar of generalized welfare that destroys the value of work. We say NO to this demagogic reform. |
