The Liberal Initiative has launched parliamentary sessions in Porto, with the aim of centering national attention on the country's structural reforms. The party's parliamentary leader, Mário Amorim Lopes, stated that these sessions will serve to "focus the country on what truly matters, the reforms." The party positions these sessions as a response to what it considers to be a "majority of deadlocks" in Portuguese politics, suggesting criticism of legislative paralysis. The sessions run for several days in Porto, a city the party chose as the venue for this initiative to engage with citizens.
