Germany's federal parliament, the Bundestag, is bursting at the seams.
With its 736 members, it had become larger than any other parliament.
Now the ruling parties have pushed through legislation to make it smaller and limit its size.
But the opposition argues that is unconstitutional.
Opposition leader Friedrich Merz (SPD) stressed that his party was in favor of reducing the size of the Bundestag.
Whether the reform bill of the center-left coalition will permanently change German electoral law will ultimately be decided by the Federal Constitutional Court in Karlsruhe.
