Results of the 2nd round
Topics: unemployment insurance, carbon tax & border security
From March 1st to April 14th 2019, more than 1,500 citizens discussed European policy issues in 260 privately organised HomeParliaments throughout Germany. The topic of this edition was “A Europe that protects”.
A large majority of the House Parliaments supported the introduction of an unemployment fund and a CO2 tax at EU level. With 68% and 79% respectively, the MEHPs (Members of European HomeParliaments) thus made it very clear that they wanted closer union on these issues. More than half of the participants even thought that the proposal of a CO2 tax did not go far enough. The debate on strengthening the border management agency FRONTEX was much more controversial. With 131 votes in favour, a very narrow majority of the 260 house parliaments voted in favour of the proposal.
