Alberto Núñez Feijóo has presented this Tuesday, to representatives of civil society, gathered in the Espacio Torrelara in Madrid, the electoral program with which the Partido Popular will stand for the general elections on next 29 November. Under the title 'National Reconstruction', the PP president has brought together his main Government commitments into four major objectives: to repair the State, to regenerate democracy, to bring together the Nation, and to recover Spain's ambition.
The document, which the party presents as a roadmap for a legislature, includes measures to reorganize the Administration, institutional reforms, tax cuts, housing, security, immigration, and public services. Among the commitments, a general audit of public spending in the first one hundred days of Government, the reduction of ministries and senior posts, the independence of the Prosecutor General of the State, the construction of one million homes, and an IRPF reduced for young people during their first four years of work activity stand out.
The PP argues that its proposal responds to what it considers a deterioration of institutions and public services during the eight years of Government of Pedro Sánchez. «The State has lost capacity, power has pushed the limits of democracy, the common Nation has been used to confront and negotiate, and Spaniards have been accustomed to live below their means», indicates the diagnosis that accompanies the program.
Feijóo intends for the announced measures to constitute priority commitments and not a catalog of proposals without a timetable. The document presents them as actions that a PP Executive will carry out «yes or yes» during the next legislature, although some will require legal reforms, parliamentary agreements, or the participation of the autonomous communities.
1. Repair the State: general audit and reduction of the Administration
The first part of the program is devoted to reorganizing the General Administration of the State and reviewing the destination of public resources. Feijóo commits to carrying out an audit during his first one hundred days in Government that will cover spending, bodies, public companies, and the administrative structure.
The conclusions of that review would serve as the basis for drawing up the first General State Budgets of an PP Executive. The party also proposes reducing the number of ministries, senior offices and advisers, merging bodies with duplicate functions, and setting an expiry date for the new bodies, agencies and foundations, unless the Cortes expressly approve their continuity.
In territorial matters, it proposes a National Plan for the State’s Presence, which would begin, during the first six months, with a review of state offices, headcounts and facilities across all provinces, islands and autonomous cities. The document pays special attention to the Basque Country, Navarre and Catalonia.
Citizen security is another of the axes of this section. The PP proposes strengthening fast-track trials and facilitating the joint processing of minor offences related to repeat offending, especially in cases of theft and illegal occupation of real estate.
Immigration: identification in seven days and quotas by sector
The program incorporates changes to migration policy. Among them, identification within a maximum period of seven days of people who cross the border irregularly and speeding up removals in accordance with the new European framework.
The PP also proposes establishing annual quotas for labor immigration by sector, taking into account unemployment rates, unfilled vacancies and available capacity in housing, public services and employment. According to the document, these mechanisms would be applied to countries that cooperate with Spain in return procedures.
2. Regenerate democracy: reforms to the Constitutional Court, the Prosecutor’s Office and the Budgets
The second pillar proposes modifying the operating rules of some of the main institutions of the State. One of the most relevant proposals is to require the calling of general elections when a second consecutive budget extension occurs.
With this initiative, the PP aims to prevent a Government from running out an entire term without approving new public accounts. Implementing it would require a reform of the current regulatory framework, given that the Constitution currently allows the automatic extension of the previous Budgets.
It also proposes changes to the composition of the Constitutional Court. The candidates could not have held political offices during the five years prior to their appointment and the justices would have to refrain from intervening in matters related to rules that they had previously promoted from the Government.
The reform of the Public Prosecutor’s Office constitutes another of the central commitments. The Attorney General of the State would have a single five-year term, independent of the length of the Government that proposed it, and their appointment would require a binding report from the General Council of the Judiciary (CGPJ).
In addition, the PP proposes that the Attorney General immediately and automatically cease if they are judicially prosecuted. The group’s stated objective is to strengthen the autonomy of the Public Prosecutor’s Office with respect to the Executive.
3. Bringing the Nation together: pensions, education and 300.000 million in infrastructure
The third block addresses the policies that the PP considers necessary to strengthen equal opportunities and territorial cohesion.
In education, Feijóo proposes a common University Entrance Examination (PAU) across Spain, agreed with the autonomous communities and universities, with shared evaluation criteria.
Regarding pensions, the program maintains the commitment to annually revalue benefits in line with the CPI. It also proposes strengthening the Toledo Pact to address the system’s sustainability and ensure that young workers will be able to access in the future pensions that preserve their purchasing power.
The biggest investment commitment: 300.000 million over fifteen years
One of the announcements with the greatest economic scope is the infrastructure plan of more than 300.000 million euros over fifteen years, which the PP intends to develop by mobilizing public and private resources.
The program includes investments in highways, high-speed rail, Cercanías, hydraulic infrastructures, and energy networks. Its time horizon goes beyond a legislature and will therefore require multi-year planning.
The PP also incorporates a new Nationality Law. The proposal includes requiring legal and continued residence, knowledge of Spanish and of constitutional values, good civic conduct, and being up to date with obligations to the Treasury and Social Security. The text provides for preferential treatment for nationals of countries of the Hispanidad.
4. Recovering ambition: housing, taxes, families and healthcare
The fourth pillar concentrates a large part of the economic and social measures aimed at households, workers and young people.
In housing, Feijóo commits to boost the construction of one million homes, supporting this goal with a new Land Law and a reform of administrative procedures to speed up planning and urban development permits.
The program proposes that building permits be resolved within a period of three months, with the application of positive administrative silence in the legally provided cases. The proposal will require regulatory changes and coordination with the competent administrations.
To make it easier for young people to access their first home, the PP proposes reducing the VAT applicable to new homes purchased by under-40s from 10% to 4%, also allowing the tax payment to be split according to the mortgage schedule.
This measure is complemented by the so-called Hucha Hogar Joven, which would allow saving up to 2,000 euros per year to acquire a first home, with a 20% deduction and guarantees of up to 40,000 euros.
IRPF zero in the first year for young people
Another of the most notable tax proposals is the progressive reduction of IRPF for young people between 18 and 35 years old.
The program establishes that beneficiaries will not pay this tax during their first year of the measure’s application. In the second they would pay 25% of the contribution that would correspond to them, 50% in the third and 75% in the fourth. From the fifth tax year onward, they would be taxed according to the general system.
At the same time, the PP proposes updating the IRPF family minimums in line with inflation and replacing the current family deductions with a single refundable deduction, which would be paid monthly. The measure would also benefit households whose tax liability was insufficient to take full advantage of the deduction.
In healthcare, the program includes the commitment to add at least 4,500 doctors to Primary Care, a measure that would require coordination with the autonomous communities, who are responsible for providing healthcare services.
Ceuta and Melilla, priority in the European border policy
The document also reserves a specific commitment for Ceuta and Melilla. The PP proposes to place the southern border among Spain’s priorities with the European Union and to demand for both autonomous cities a treatment comparable to that which Brussels granted in 2025 to its border regions with Russia.
The party considers that the geographical, economic, and security particularities of the two cities justify specific attention from the community institutions.
A program for a legislature, with commitments that go further
With this presentation to representatives of civil society, Feijóo has unveiled the main lines of the project with which he intends to govern Spain after the 29N.
The PP organizes its proposal into four objectives that range from the reorganization of the State to fiscal policy, housing, immigration, infrastructure, and the reform of institutions.
The scope of the commitments is uneven in terms of timelines and legislative needs. While the Administration’s audit is planned for the first one hundred days and the review of the State’s territorial presence for the first six months, other measures will require legal reforms, agreements with the autonomous communities, or investments that will extend over several legislatures.
The program, presented under the slogan “National Reconstruction,” constitutes the political and economic proposal with which Alberto Núñez Feijóo asks for the trust of the Spanish people for the general elections next November 29.
