The alliance was created to unite progressive and environmental forces ahead of the 1738 general election, resulting in a decisive victory for alliance leader Francisco Valverde and majorities in both houses of the Federal Congress.

The agreement included significant environmental commitments from the LPP, including strict Alexandrium mining regulations and guaranteed GPO representation in key cabinet positions. The formation marked the first time the GPO had declined to run its own Federal Representative candidate since its founding in 1707 AN. A small faction led by Deputy Jacques Verdier initially opposed the alliance but later reconciled after securing additional environmental policy commitments and being promised key positions in the administration.
Electoral performance
