By Plenary Sessions: Urmas Reinsalu

The political position is strongly opposed to the government’s anti-economic and economically destabilizing policies, particularly regarding the ambitions of the green transition and new regulations. The speaker emphasizes that Parliament is knowingly adopting laws that violate the constitution, infringing upon property rights and legitimate expectation. This stance is strongly value-based, focusing on protecting the rule of law and economic predictability. Isamaa will vote against the bill and calls upon the President not to promulgate it.

The political position centers on strong opposition to the government's fiscal policy, deeming the 2025 state budget unconstitutional and opaque. The speaker stresses the urgent necessity of restoring parliamentary oversight of revenues and expenditures, accusing the government of managerial incompetence and misleading the public. The platform is strongly results-oriented, focusing on the restoration of fiscal discipline and constitutional order. Isamaa's directive is to reinstate Parliament's authority to clearly define revenues and expenditures.

The central theme is the government's tax hike policy (ten new taxes, exceeding one billion euros), which has been dubbed "Black Tax Wednesday." The speaker is vehemently opposed to the government's economic policy, deeming it unstable and detrimental to the public's ability to cope financially. The political framework is strongly performance-based, emphasizing responsible fiscal management and the genuine needs of national defense, while accusing the government of misleading the public regarding defense spending. It is promised that the car tax and the overall tax hike policy will be repealed should the Isamaa party assume governmental responsibility.

The political position is strongly opposed to the government's tax increases and fiscal policy, stressing that these measures will lead to an erosion of purchasing power and slower economic growth. The speaker accuses the government of setting a "black record" by raising ten taxes and focuses specifically on the negative impact of these policies on lower-income individuals. This stance is heavily results-oriented, criticizing the government for its actions which have led to a deterioration of key economic indicators.

The political position is strongly opposed to the car tax, which is referred to as a "fiasco" and which Isamaa promises to abolish. The main focus is on the protection of property rights, arguing that the coalition's amendments are unconstitutional because they allow a bad-faith possessor to direct the destruction of property without the owner's consent. The speaker frames their stance as value-based, defending the economic decision-making freedoms of the Estonian people.

The political position is strongly oppositional to the government’s social and tax policies, particularly regarding the reduction of benefits for families with children. The most salient issues are the demographic crisis and the government’s failure to address it, which is viewed as a systemic threat to the interests of children. The framework is value-based, accusing the government of hypocrisy and undermining the interests of children. The policy’s objective is considered to be the implementation of the Reform Party’s "tax hump" project, rather than the provision of social security.

The most striking themes are the strong opposition to the government’s cascade of tax hikes (VAT, income tax, excises) and its failure to cut administrative spending. The political position is presented forcefully, emphasizing the government's incompetence and the worsening economic outlook. The critique is primarily results-based, accusing the government of poor governance, breaking promises, and ignoring security priorities. As an alternative, Isamaa proposes substantial cuts to administrative costs and abandoning the tax increases.
