On September 18, the National Assembly's Bureau deemed the RN's repeal proposal acceptable for further consideration, despite some socialist members hoping it would be ruled inadmissible.

The political landscape surrounding this issue is tense, with the government facing budget constraints that limit its options.

Critics from the Socialist Party (PS) accuse the RN of failing to break from Emmanuel Macron's policies and aligning with Eric Ciotti, despite their absence from protests against the pension reform.

The RN's proposal has received mixed reactions; while some view it as financially sound, others warn it could worsen public deficits.

For the RN's repeal proposal to pass, it will require support from left-wing parties, as it faces expected opposition from right-wing and Macronist deputies.

Sandrine Rousseau, a deputy from the Ecologist and Social group, has urged the left to present their own repeal proposal instead of backing the RN's text.

New Prime Minister Michel Barnier has expressed a commitment to improving the pension reform law, which has been contentious amid significant public protests.

Some PS members are concerned about potentially missing the opportunity to repeal the pension reform, emphasizing their responsibility to their constituents.

The PS plans to advocate for their position on the pension reform during the examination of the Social Security budget and through a proposal during La France Insoumise's parliamentary niche in November.

The France Insoumise (LFI) party is expected to oppose the RN's proposal, arguing that the RN has not actively opposed the pension reform and risks giving the far-right a political victory.

The National Rally (RN) is set to propose the repeal of the 2023 pension reform, which raised the retirement age to 64, during its parliamentary niche on October 31.

This proposal has sparked division among socialists, with some firmly opposing any collaboration with the RN, asserting they would never support an RN text.
