Godek's 2021 proposal would ban LGBT marches. It was supported by the Polish Catholic Church and gathered 140,000 signatures, surpassing the 100,000 required for a Sejm debate. The bill was debated in the first of three readings on 29 October 2021, and passed to the next stage with 235 yes votes (205 no votes, 1 abstention). Said stage consists in the bill being discussed by parliamentary committees. The German newspaper called it "questionable" whether the proposal would return to parliament from there before the 2023 parliamentary election, and come into force. It added that "many experts" doubt that the law is compatible with European Union law.
