The initiative is not new, however, since the Communists expressed the same intention in the fall.

Accepting a referendum means six months of public meetings, appearances in the media, a major campaign of confrontation of ideas … It would do democracy good

”, defended Fabien Roussel at the time.

The PCF has since embarked on a major campaign, aimed at collecting signatures for an online petition.

The referendum motion makes it possible to suspend the examination of a bill, if it meets the criteria for a referendum as defined by the Constitution.

It is discussed prior to the first discussions, and must receive a simple majority of votes in favor, before being submitted to the Senate within thirty days.

If the text is adopted by both chambers, it takes the form of a referendum proposal, which the President of the Republic is free to accept or refuse.
