Deputies likely to pass enfranchisement bill today, President likely to veto

Today deputies will vote on amendments to the enfranchisement bill prepared by the Senate. Although most of the Senate's amendments are not likely to be rejected it is the President who will finally decide on the success of the act. Senators proposed 60 amendments for which Solidarity Election Action (AWS) and the Polish Peasant Party (PSL) have already declared their support. Representatives from the Democratic Left Alliance (SLD) and Freedom Union (UW) criticize the project for being unconstitutional and "unjust" because some people may get property of a higher value if it is situated for example in the center of Warsaw. Rumors are that if passed, the President will veto the bill. (Prawo i Gospodarka, page 2)
