The amnesty law was key in securing the support of Together for Catalonia (Junts)'s 7 MPs to Pedro Sánchez's investiture to a third term as prime minister of Spain following the 2023 Spanish general election and the ensuing government formation negotiations.[5][6][7] The law proposal sparked numerous protests across the streets.[8][9][10]
On 26 June 2025, the Constitutional Court of Spain dismissed the appeal filed by the opposition People's Party (PP) and declared the law fully constitutional by six votes to four.[11]
