About Catarina MARTINS

Catarina Martins represents Portugal in the European Parliament as a member of The Left in the European Parliament (GUE/NGL), the left-wing and socialist grouping that advocates for economic justice, workers' rights, and opposition to austerity policies. She belongs to the Left Bloc (Bloco de Esquerda), Portugal's main left-wing party that emerged from the merger of various socialist and Trotskyist organizations in 1999 and has established itself as a significant force in Portuguese politics, particularly in opposition to neoliberal economic policies. Martins previously served as the Left Bloc's national coordinator (party leader) from 2012 to 2022, during which time she led the party through several legislative elections and played a key role in supporting the Socialist government's anti-austerity agenda following the 2015 elections.

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.
