On July 1, 2024, DPP legislator Guo Guowen responded to the KMT by pointing out that two years ago, he proposed legislation to raise the recall threshold but the KMT ignored it. Now that KMT members are facing recall, they are proposing to raise the threshold, which he criticized as self-serving. Guo also referenced a Constitutional Court ruling, stating that even if the amendment is passed, it will only apply to the next term. The controversy has sparked a wave of efforts to recall KMT legislators, with the KMT proposing to amend the law to raise the threshold. Guo emphasized that any changes in the recall threshold should apply to all current legislators, as they were elected under the existing law and should face the same recall standards.
