The Constitutional Council was seized by the two parliamentary chambers on the vaccination pass: the Assembly then the Senate, led respectively by the parliamentary groups of insubordinate France and the Socialists, brought together the number of parliamentarians necessary (sixty) for their referral .
It is through a “narrow door”, an expression designating an “external contribution” to the Council’s deliberations, that the Right & Freedom Circle also showed up. This practice consists in providing an argument to support or oppose the text voted by the Parliament, outside the official channels of referral, but in a public way, in order to enlighten, or influence, the reflection and the decision of the Elders.
The text “deals with the unconstitutionality of the vaccination pass and the identity check created by the bill adopted on January 16, 2022”, specifies the Cercle, which wished to focus its contribution on a few key points, and details in eight pages its arguments, arranged as follows:
1. Lack of suitability for the constitutional objective of protecting public health
2. A vaccination obligation not provided for by law
3. Disproportionate infringement of the principle of equality
4. A breach of the principle of equality
5. The attack on the constitutional identity of France by a misguided identity check

Articulating the main principles of law, legal texts, court decisions, and media statements by our governments, the external contribution intends to demonstrate how this text violates the fundamental principles, contradicts the stated objectives, both from a legal and scientific point of view. , and explains that the Constitutional Council cannot, should, logically, only censor it.
