Spanish lawmakers rejected a government housing decree, increasing pressure on Prime Minister Sánchez.
Spanish lawmakers rejected a key housing measure proposed by the Socialist-led coalition government. The vote occurred shortly after the eviction of an 87-year-old woman, which had fueled public protest. Opposition parties united to defeat the decree, intensifying pressure on Prime Minister Sánchez.
This legislative setback follows a series of political challenges for the government, including scandals affecting its allies. The defeat of the housing plan raises the possibility of a snap election, as the government struggles to maintain its legislative agenda amidst growing public discontent and political fragmentation.
