Legislation can only be proposed by the unelected commission. The only elected institutions are the council of Europe and the parliament and all they ever do is rubber stamp and approve/disapprove (respectively) bills.
Again,
be carefulIf that point of view was popular, guess what the European commission would do? Give everyone the vote. They know how to manipulate public opinion, and it would only make the commission
more legitimate, not less. And it would also be one more step on the road to changing the EU into the United States of Europe.
Yes, be careful, especially if you are in the US.
