Hungary chose change!
After 16 years under Viktor Orbán, the Hungarian people have voted for democracy, freedom, and a European future. This is a powerful victory for all who stood up to corruption & refused to give up hope.
Today we celebrate.
Tomorrow, we rebuild.

Every day, millions of Europeans reach for their lipstick, sunscreen, or perfume, trusting that these products are safe.
But did you know the European Commission is about to roll back hard-won protections, allowing dangerous chemicals back into our cosmetics?
Here’s what you need to know 👇
Our health is NOT negotiable.
On #WorldHealthDay we’re saying NO to toxic chemicals in our cosmetics.
The EU Commission wants to weaken safety rules, putting big pharma profits over our health.
Demand safe cosmetics, free of cancer-causing chemicals ➡️ act.greens-efa.eu/cosmetics/
Our Group demanded the EU Parliament urgently discuss the need for the EU to respond to #Israel’s new ‘death penalty law’ targeting #Palestinians, the continued settler violence, and its unlawful imposition of sovereignty over the occupied #WestBank, during the next #EPlenary.

Prices for our energy are going up, up, up. Trump’s war in Iran is driving record profits into oil and gas companies’ pockets.
Our solution: a 🌟 Trump Tax on excessive profits 🌟 to fund solar and wind energy - cheap renewables made in Europe.

Das ist historisch! Parlament und Rat einigen sich bei der Zollreform: durch mehr europäische Zusammenarbeit kann der Zoll gezielter kontrollieren und uns besser vor gefährlichen Produkten schützen! Mehr Europa in Zeiten, wo wir eine starke EU so dringend brauchen!
quote by Greens-EFA MEP Kim Van Sparrentak
Today the EU Parliament voted to ban "nudifier" apps - AI tools that strip dignity, fuel abuse and blackmail.
A win for women and children’s safety! But we’re not done: no loopholes for high-risk AI. Europe must lead on safe, ethical tech. @kimvsparrentak.bsky.social

Big win on privacy!
EU Parliament backs our proposal on #ChatControl: no more mass scanning of everyone’s private messages. Instead, targeted checks only for suspects with judicial approval.
A major step for fundamental rights - fight continues in final negotiations: greens.eu/chat-control...
They’re applauding while voting to lock up children up. Backed by Christian Democrats @eppgroup.bsky.social, the far-right pushed through the Return Regulation.
But we know Europeans don’t want ICE-style deportations.
We care for each other and we protect people’s rights. We won't stay silent.
Reopening #ChatControl file sends a dangerous signal that democratic decisions can be overturned if governments wait long enough.
We'll keep fighting to stop mass scanning of private communications.

@marketkag.bsky.social
No European ICE - f*ck your American nightmare.
Will the far-right get a majority for locking up kids like ICE does in the US? Not if it is up to us.
Europe belongs to all who care for each other, not to the far-right.
Tell your MEPs to speak up against this alliance of hate.

Huge win for privacy! 🎉
Thanks to Greens/EFA MEP @marketkag.bsky.social the European Parliament spoke out against #chatcontrol - the unlimited and ineffective mass scanning of our private online communication.

#Energy bills are rising. Big energy corporations are profiting.
As long as Europe depends on imported #FossilFuels, our #security and wallets are vulnerable to the whims of warmongers and autocrats.
#Renewables can help us become energy independent. #EnergyPackage

A majority of EU Parliament rejected our solutions to the housing crisis:
1️⃣End housing speculation
2️⃣Invest in public, green, affordable homes
3️⃣End homelessness by 2030
4️⃣Stop short-term rentals driving rents up
5️⃣Make renovations accessible
We fight for a EU where everyone has a safe, affordable home✊
The housing crisis didn’t happen by accident. It’s the result of political choices.
Millions struggle to afford a home in Europe. Solutions exist.
The EU can act to make housing affordable again, but the EPP group and the far-right keep blocking progress.
🎥 @marietouss1.bsky.social ⬇️
The housing crisis is not a natural disaster. It is the result of political choices treating homes as financial assets rather than a place to live.
We stand by everyone - all workers, families, students, elderly - and their right to an affordable home.
- Greens/EFA MEP @gordanbosanac.bsky.social
Housing is about more than walls & roofs.
It's about dignity & basic rights.
We fight for an EU where:
🏡no one is homeless
🏡homes are safe
🏡rents & bills affordable
🏡everyone can access a decent home
🏡people benefit from lower energy bills

🐱 When cats choose a home, they pick a comfy spot.
When investors choose a home, they pick profit. 💸
Led by Green and progressive mayors, cities, communities, and movements across Europe are demanding housing that serves people and cats, not profits. 🏘️💚
An unholy coalition between EPP and extreme right just adopted a law enabling ICE-style structures and deportations. A step closer to a dystopian, Trump-inspired deportation policy.
A big step away from a fair, humane and efficient migration system. I urge the EPP to rethink before the plenary vote.
❌ We need to stop relying on volatile supplies of gas and oil.
For our security and stability, the EU must have its own supply of energy and renewables are the solution.
We can produce it ourselves, we don’t need to rely on external forces.
💚 Renewable energy is the future.
We wanted to discuss Trump's threats to Spain in plenary and the potential impact on EU-US trade relations but the conservatives teamed up with the far-right and blocked our requests 😐
The EU must stand united, not on the side of Trump.
Escalation cannot be the answer.
The strikes on Iran fuel a cycle of retaliation that puts millions of civilians at risk.
Hoping for regime collapse is not a strategy but gambling with regional stability.
My thoughts are with the people of #Iran. Women & men who for years been caught between repression at home & escalation abroad.
They aren't responsible for this regime. Yet they keep paying highest price.
What they deserve is freedom, security & chance to live a life in dignity.
Well over 1 million Europeans have demanded access to free & safe abortion across the EU.
Today, the EU Commission has taken an important step in the right direction and acknowledged that the EU must support women’s sexual and reproductive health.

Poisonous chemicals do not belong in toothpaste, perfume or sunscreen.
The EU Commission wants to let them back in, but we are saying NO.
Our health comes before the profits of the cosmetics industry.

Viktor Orbán has betrayed Ukraine and Europe.
In the face of Ukrainian strength, he has made Europe weak.
In the face of Ukraine’s fight for freedom, he has acted cowardly.
In the face of European unity, he has become Putin’s cheap servant.
This must stop.

US Supreme Court ruling Trump’s tariffs illegal is a first step on the path to restoring separation of powers & democratic accountability in the US & rules in international relations.
We must pause the vote on the Turnberry agreement in the EU Parliament.
