"Nobody is speaking up because fake news has already spread that we have a nationwide 'Let's love each other!' like in the finale of 'Pan Tadeusz'. When there's talk of raises, everyone has gained decisiveness, vigor. There's no topic for discussion. I understand this, because it is indeed a scandal that a Member of Parliament cannot properly pay people they would wish to engage in work for the good of the Republic. Meritoriously, there is no dispute" – Grzegorz Braun of Konfederacja said in the Sejm.

During the parliamentary debate on the draft bill, no representative from Civic Platform (KO), The Left (Lewica), or the Polish People's Party (PSL) spoke in the discussion.
