The social issue is suffrage and the loyalty of non-Estonian speaking communities, which is treated exclusively as a question of security and political power within the Estonian state. The speaker emphasizes that this current debate does not concern humanitarian or human rights, which are guaranteed to everyone by the constitution, but rather issues pertaining to the state's political power.

Social issues are addressed through the prism of security, supporting a constitutional amendment aimed at restricting voting rights in local elections to curb Russian influence. Furthermore, efforts are underway to neutralize the legal influence of the Moscow Patriarchate, which is framed as both a security and a legal problem.

Social issues are addressed through the lens of economic policy consequences, emphasizing the negative impact of tax hikes on families with children, small business owners, rural residents, and the elderly. It is specifically highlighted that the net pension decreased for over 146,000 Estonian pensioners due to the rise in income tax. The social focus is aimed at restoring economic security.

The primary social focus is on the quality of life and social security of seniors. Concerns are being raised regarding the high cost of care home services (medication, accessible transport) and the loss of the benefit for pensioners living alone, which affected nearly 7,000 people. Protection of seniors' purchasing power and actual quality of life is demanded.
