French Government Ready to Bypass Parliament for Budget Cuts
Original: French Government Is Willing to Bypass Parliament to Pass Billions in Cuts https://www.wsj.com/world/europe/french-gover
France's government says it is willing to use special constitutional powers to push through billions of euros in spending cuts without a parliamentary vote. The move reflects the government's struggle to get a budget through a fragmented parliament, and is drawing criticism from opposition lawmakers who see it as a democratic overreach.
Why now: Concern over France's budget crisis and the government's use of exceptional constitutional powers to pass unpopular austerity measures.
