==== As a single party (2007β2014) ==== In 2007, ForHRUL was transformed into a single party that retained the name and identity of the old electoral alliance. In recent years the party's support has declined as ethnic Russian voters have switched allegiance to the [[Social Democratic Party "Harmony"|Harmony]] party, successor to the National Harmony Party. At the [[2010 Latvian parliamentary election|2010 parliamentary election]], the party lost its representation in the Latvian Parliament. In 2011, the party launched an unsuccessful [[Amendments to the Citizenship Law (popular initiative, Latvia)|popular initiative]] on amending the [[Latvian nationality law|law governing Latvian nationality]]. The Central Electoral Commission considered the proposed amendment to be incompatible with the [[Constitution of Latvia]] and the process of collecting signatures for a [[referendum]] on the proposals was suspended. This decision was eventually upheld by the [[Constitutional Court of Latvia]] and the [[Supreme Court of Latvia]]. It also supported the [[2012 Latvian constitutional referendum|2012 initiative]] to make Russian a co-official language in Latvia.
