  "account": "The Spanish government rejected two housing bills this Friday, prompting an early election announced on Monday by Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez. However, the government plans to submit a new legal text to the Congress' Permanent Commission, the body that retains some of the functions of the dissolved Parliament, as the vote of Junts — crucial in the Plenary rejection — may be irrelevant in the Permanent Commission due to the reduced weight of Junts' representation. This body mirrors the Plenary's representation, but with a significant difference: Junts' representation carries less weight in the 69 Permanent Commission deputies compared to the 350 Plenary seats. The question arises: is it constitutional for the government to exploit this numerical disparity to approve, through a \"downgraded\" body, what was just rejected by the Plenary representing popular sovereignty?",
  "summary": "El Gobierno de Pedro Sánchez ya usó la vía de la Diputación Permanente del Congreso para aprobar una norma sobre vivienda rechazada por el Pleno, pero en circunstancias distintas",
