- Rassemblement National and La France Insoumise will vote against, while Les Républicains and Horizons are split and largely leaning to abstention; Greens and Liot could prove decisive.
- The government has tabled amendments lifting the health‑spending target (ONDAM) to 3% and adding €100 million for overseas territories to attract key votes.
- Ministers say they will not use a special law, ordonnances or article 49.3, and warn that failure could widen the 2026 Sécurité sociale deficit to about €29–30 billion even though benefits would still be paid.
- Deputies are set to vote on the spending section and then the full PLFSS in second reading today, with several outlets reporting the outcome could hinge on only a handful of votes.
