The EPP generally advocates for pro-business policies, fiscal responsibility, and stronger European institutions while maintaining conservative positions on social issues.

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.
