In 2020, she also joined the Subcommittee on Tax Matters.[4] She has also been a substitute member of the Committee on International Trade (2019–2021) and the Committee on Employment and Social Affairs (since 2021).[5]

In addition to her committee assignments, Lalucq is part of the Parliament's delegation for relations with the United States.

Political positions[edit]

In May 2021, Lalucq joined a group of 39 mostly Green Party lawmakers from the European Parliament who in a letter urged the leaders of Germany, France and Italy not to support Arctic LNG 2, a $21 billion Russian Arctic liquefied natural gas (LNG) project, due to climate change concerns.[10]

In 2022, Lalucq urged France's market regulator AMF to review its decision to register the Binance cryptocurrency exchange as a digital assets service provider, citing a Reuters investigation into money laundering on the platform.[11]
