As of 2019, over 90 percent of PVV, FvD and 50PLUS voters surveyed indicated that they were in favor of the Partial Ban on Face-Covering Clothing Act, which was introduced in the Netherlands on August 1, 2019. Commonly known as the "burqa ban", the act prohibits the wearing of clothing which covers the face in public buildings and on public transport. Support for this burqa ban was highest among PVV voters. 100 percent of PVV voters surveyed approved of the ban, while less than 30 percent of GroenLinks voters agreed with it.
