15th Riigikogu, 4th sitting, plenary session
The primary legislative focus is opposing amendments to the Medicinal Products Act, which is viewed as a bill that was fast-tracked and partially nationalizes the pharmaceutical market. It demands the revocation of voting rights for citizens of the aggressor state and criticizes the preparation of the 2025 state budget regarding energy and taxation. When it comes to legislation, it tends to be a critical opponent rather than an initiator.
