  • For the first time in 45 years of democracy, the Senate will raise a conflict between constitutional bodies against the Congress of Deputies.
  • The Senate Table will require the Congress to withdraw the Amnesty Law Proposal.
  • The PP is using an uncommon institutional decision as a resource for dubious considerations of the 'unconstitutionality' of the norm.
  • Opposition to the Amnesty Law is unlikely to automatically suspend its processing.
  • The PP runs the risk of their requirement being dismissed, thus generating a significant setback to their theses against amnesty.
  • It seems possible that the PP is following a 'maximal opposition' strategy in an attempt to compete with Vox.

Conclusion: The PP's action is strategically dubious and likely lacks a solid legal foundation, appearing to be more of a political tactic that is unlikely to prevent the continuation of the legislative procedure.
