Elsi Katainen represents Finland in the European Parliament as a member of the Centre Party, Finland's traditionally agrarian centrist party that has historically championed rural interests and moderate policies. She sits with the Renew Europe political group, which promotes liberal democratic values, European integration, and pro-business economic policies while supporting the rule of law and climate action. Prior to her European Parliament role, Katainen served as Finland's Minister of Family Affairs and Social Services from 2015 to 2019 in Juha Sipilä's government, bringing significant national political experience to her current position. Her background in social policy and her party's centrist positioning inform her approach to European legislative work, where she contributes to debates on issues affecting Finnish and European citizens.

Methodology
Attendance is calculated based on roll-call votes in plenary sessions of the European Parliament. Committee votes are excluded. Abstaining counts as present; not voting counts as absent. Sittings for which the Parliament officially excused a Member (Rule 162, illness, family, official mission, or maternity) are credited, not counted as absences. Notable votes are selected based on significance, close outcomes, and high participation.
