Defending the Poles against the Tusk government’s harmful decisions on retirement age has been PiS’s priority, PiS vice president, former Prime Minister Beata Szydło, wrote after announcing the second referendum question.
On Friday, Law and Justice began presenting further referendum questions. The first question – as announced by PiS president Jarosław Kaczyński – will be:
Do you support the sale of state-owned enterprises?

Another referendum question was announced by Beata Szydło on Saturday and will read: Are you in favor of raising the retirement age, which today is 60 for women and 65 for men?
As the former prime minister stressed on Twitter, “defending Poland against the harmful decisions of the Tusk government on the retirement age was already PiS’s priority in President Andrzej Duda’s campaign in 2015.
After winning the elections, PiS fulfilled the promise to the Poles and abolished the increase in the retirement age. We will not allow the return of rules that force Poles to work almost to the end of their lives. #Poland decide
she added.
Four referendum questions
PiS spokesman Rafał Bochenek told PAP that “the resolution of the referendum will be submitted to the Sejm and will contain four questions that will be tabled systematically in the coming days.”
A two-day session of the Sejm will take place on August 16 and 17; according to the schedule, it will consider a motion to order a nationwide referendum.
In June, Deputy Prime Minister Kaczyński declared that the issue of relocation of migrants in the EU should be put to a referendum. Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki confirmed the intention to hold the referendum together with the parliamentary elections in the autumn.
