According to SET News on June 13, 2024, the Parliament Expansion Bill faces review, with the Cabinet proposing reconsideration, leading to Blue and Green Camps planning to speak in different areas this weekend. The People's Party initially showed little interest in speaking engagements, until the 11th when they suddenly expressed willingness to speak at temple entrances depending on the situation, raising concerns of marginalization. The party intended to use Qingdao East Road for speaking but found the routes taken by the legislature around June 20 had already been fully booked, prompting a sense of urgency to regain influence. Blue and Green Camps are set to hold large-scale lectures this weekend, with nearly a hundred events planned across 22 governing counties and cities, while the People's Party is lagging behind in mobilizing public discourse effectively.

Starbucks stated the importance of consistent federal standards, while the union representing the workers criticized the ruling. The case began when Starbucks fired seven workers trying to unionize, leading to a court order for them to be rehired, and eventually reaching the Supreme Court.

The US Supreme Court ruled in a 9-0 decision that strengthens Starbucks' position against the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) and makes it more challenging for the agency to win temporary reinstatement for workers fired during labor disputes. The decision will require federal judges to review NLRB requests with the same scrutiny as any other preliminary injunction petition, slowing down the process and raising the bar for the agency to secure immediate court orders, a tool previously vital for safeguarding workers' rights under the National Labor Relations Act.

Lai also stressed the vital role of semiconductors in the era of smart technology, while addressing China's economic challenges and declining investments in Taiwan. Opposition parties in Taiwan support restarting negotiations on the 'Cross-Strait Service Trade Agreement,' but Lai dismissed this as outdated due to substantial economic differences between Taiwan and China.

During the first joint session of the Legislative Yuan's Judiciary and Internal Administration Committees on June 13, 2024, the proposal by Kuomintang (KMT) legislators to increase the retirement income replacement rate for police and firefighters was approved, suggesting raising it to 90%, in alignment with military retirees' rate. The proposal sparked debate with concerns from the Examination Yuan about potential financial implications and criticism from Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) legislators citing constitutional and financial discipline violations. The KMT argued for higher benefits due to the higher-risk nature of police, firefighters, and coast guard duties. After discussions and a motion to adjourn by DPP legislators, the decision to raise the replacement rate to 90% was sent for negotiation amid Blue Camp's majority vote.
