Overview
- The party released a 208‑page program that proposes a new 'First Ecological and Citizen Republic' to curb présidentialisme and enshrine judicial independence in the constitution.
- Economic proposals include raising the legal minimum wage to €2,000 gross per month, large public-sector pay increases, shorter hours for arduous jobs, and restoring earlier retirement rules.
- To pay for reforms the plan calls for new levies such as a 2% Zucman wealth tax above €100 million, an ISF described as 'climatic,' a differentiated green VAT, higher taxes on very large firms, and a tax on fossil super‑profits.
- Les Écologistes say the program grew from ten months of work and 50,000 contributions from think tanks, unions and researchers, and militants have given principle support to an autonomous Tondelier candidacy while the party finalises strategy.
- Coverage has focused on institutional change in some outlets and detailed economic measures in others, and the plan’s mix of fiscal ambition and anti‑capitalist language raises questions about budget feasibility and overlap with La France Insoumise.
