About Jessika VAN LEEUWEN

Jessika Van Leeuwen represents the Netherlands in the European Parliament as a member of the European People's Party (EPP), the centre-right political group that focuses on Christian democratic values, free market economics, and European integration. She belongs to the Farmer–Citizen Movement (BoerBurgerBeweging), a Dutch political party that emerged from farmer protests and advocates for rural interests, agricultural concerns, and citizen empowerment against what it views as excessive bureaucracy. Her presence in the EPP represents an interesting dynamic, as her national party's populist, rural-focused agenda sometimes contrasts with the more traditional centre-right positions of the broader European People's Party coalition. She serves a full term in the current parliamentary session.

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.
