The Democrats group (French: Groupe Les Démocrates), known as the Democratic, MoDem and Independents group (French: Groupe démocrate, MoDem et indépendants) until 2024, is a parliamentary group in the National Assembly of France including representatives of the Democratic Movement (MoDem).
Formed following the 2017 legislative election, it is currently the fifth-largest group in the National Assembly.
History
After the rallying of MoDem leader François Bayrou to the presidential candidacy of Emmanuel Macron, supported by En Marche (later La République En Marche! and Renaissance), the party was reserved dozens of constituencies in the subsequent legislative election, hoping to secure at least 15 deputies, the number required to form a parliamentary group. The party ultimately won 42 seats in the National Assembly.
On 25 June 2017, Marc Fesneau was unanimously elected president of the MoDem parliamentary group by its 42 members. At the time of its official formation on 27 June, the parliamentary group had 47 deputies, including 4 associated members.
