I'm sorry if this is the wrong place for this (as this seems to be a Portuguese language only community), but Portugal is trailing behind with only 3.5% of the 14.805 Portuguese signatures necessary. If there is a place better for this feel free to pint me to it (or crosspost it there yourself)

If the petition reaches 1 million signatures, the European Commission is legally required to at least introduce it as a proposed law.

Yeah and then a 1 bedroom flat will cost you around 1200€/month. So... it's no longer about being rich but about being able to afford housing and food on a 27k salary.
