About Ruth FIRMENICH

Ruth Firmenich represents Germany in the European Parliament as a member of the Sahra Wagenknecht Alliance, a left-wing party founded in 2024 by former Die Linke politician Sahra Wagenknecht that combines left-wing economic policies with more conservative positions on immigration and cultural issues. Firmenich sits with the Non-attached Members, a political group consisting of MEPs who do not belong to any of the main European political families, often representing parties with nationalist, populist, or ideologically distinct positions that do not align with established EU parliamentary groups. Firmenich serves a full term in the current European Parliament session, representing German voters who supported the Sahra Wagenknecht Alliance's alternative approach to European politics.

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.
