About João OLIVEIRA

João Oliveira represents Portugal in the European Parliament as a member of the Portuguese Communist Party, which has been Portugal's main communist party since 1921 and traditionally advocates for workers' rights, public ownership, and opposition to neoliberal policies. He sits with The Left in the European Parliament (GUE/NGL), a political group that promotes socialist and left-wing policies, opposes austerity measures, and advocates for stronger social protections and wealth redistribution across the EU. As a representative of one of Portugal's traditional left-wing parties, Oliveira brings the Portuguese Communist Party's perspective to European-level debates on economic policy, labor rights, and social issues. He serves a full term in the current European Parliament mandate.

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.
