Livre wants national mobility pass, to boost family allowance and public care home network

ZAP Notícias14 September 2026 at 11:30

The Livre party will present to the 2027 State Budget a set of proposals that include the creation of a national mobility pass, boosting family allowance and implementing a public network of care homes. These measures were announced by the party's spokesperson, Isabel Mendes Lopes, at the closing of the "Os Setebristas" initiative, which took place at the Alfândega do Porto.

Isabel Mendes Lopes again criticised the PSD/CDS-PP government, accusing it of trying to limit and undermine the work of deputies in the budgetary process. This accusation comes in the context of the debate about the proposals the party intends to bring to the 2027 State Budget.

Why this matters

Livre's proposals include measures that directly affect the lives of Portuguese citizens, from reducing mobility costs to boosting support for families and creating responses for elderly care. The criticism of the Government also indicates political tensions in the budgetary process that may influence the legislative debate.
