It's now time to vote!

The election day of the parliamentary elections is approaching. Sunday 2 April will determine what kind of society Finland will be building for the next four years. You can only make a difference by voting.

Trade Union JHL’s goal is a government that doesn’t push for a new Competitiveness Pact, mandatory laws or social security cuts.
