The DPP legislative caucus held a press conference on June 25, 2024, to present 7 reasons for applying for a constitutional interpretation, aiming to defend the constitutional system and uphold democratic rule of law. Ke Jianming stated that the Constitution is in critical condition and must be saved; he emphasized respecting the judiciary’s ruling and hoping for clarity. The DPP criticized the KMT for disrupting the constitutional order and expressed their respect for the judiciary's decision. They submitted a constitutional interpretation petition to the Judicial Yuan. President Lai Ching-te recently signed revised laws and will request constitutional interpretation and temporary disposition from the Constitutional Court, effective today; the Control Yuan also announced a similar request. The DPP filed the petition while the Executive Yuan plans to do so later, setting a precedent in constitutional interpretation. Ke Jianming stated that they are not just defending but rescuing the constitutional and democratic foundation.
