On Thursday, October 8, the deputies of La France insoumise presented twelve legislative proposals that will be part of their parliamentary initiative day on October 29 at the National Assembly. The group, led by Mathilde Panot, announced the texts during a press conference at the Palais-Bourbon. Parliamentary initiative days are limited to a single day, with sessions concluding at midnight, meaning not all proposed laws can be debated in full. The order in which the texts will be examined "is not necessarily final," the group's leader noted.
Among the proposals is a bill to ban two pesticides, acétamipride and flupyradifurone, which are considered harmful to human health and the environment. Another text seeks to establish a new "category B civil service corps" to support students with disabilities. A bill would also exempt child support payments received by the "guardian" parent from taxes, a measure previously discussed by the former parliamentary group of La France insoumise.
The group also aims to raise the minimum wage to 1700 euros net per month, reinstate the mobile wage scale, and increase the minimum pension to address "social urgency and the purchasing power crisis." They propose establishing "real control of foreign investments in France," inspired by the work of an investigative committee chaired by deputy Aurélie Trouvé (LFI), which studied the impact of speculative funds on French industry.
Other proposals include a 10-year moratorium on the Seine-Nord Europe mega-canal, a measure to prevent mayors from removing citizens from electoral lists during periods when they cannot re-register, and the creation of a "care pathway for all victims" of sexual and gender-based violence, fully covered by the Social Security. The deputies also want to extend support for young people from child protection services (ASE) from 21 to 25 years and repeal certain property law provisions in overseas territories. They also aim to abolish fixed penalty fines, which they claim can lead to police abuse, particularly in the context of drug use in public. Lastly, they propose protecting players who have acquired digital video games, requiring publishers to provide copies to the National Library of France (BNF) if they stop maintaining an online game.
