Congress votes on housing decrees without the necessary support to validate them, while the Sol encampment moves towards the Chamber.

On Friday, October 2, the Spanish Congress of Deputies held a critical vote on two housing-related royal decrees previously approved by the Council of Ministers. The legislative session took place amidst political uncertainty, as the government coalition faced a lack of sufficient support to validate the measures following a decision by Junts to vote against them. Simultaneously, protesters from the Sol encampment mobilized toward the legislative building to demonstrate during the proceedings.

In response to the opposition from Junts, which the PSOE described as incomprehensible, government representatives engaged in last-minute negotiations to secure the necessary votes. To manage the high-stakes environment, the PSOE and Sumar parliamentary groups formally requested that the vote be conducted by roll call, a procedural move intended to clarify the position of each deputy during the session.
