Both the PP (liberal conservative) and the PSOE (socialist) parties' Members of Congress agreed on pushing forward a non-binding resolution that asks the Spanish government "to push for a dialog with the Cuban government to obtain the immediate and unconditional liberation of all prisoners of conscience, and to put an end to Guillermo Fariñas's hunger strike."

All major political parties of center and center-right joined the resolution, as well as the PNV (Basque nationalist -non-violent) and CiU (Catalonian nationalist). All left-leaning political parties, with the exception of the PSOE, opposed the resolution. There was one abstention, Coalición Canaria (Canarian Coalition).
