The tax sparked a series of national protests over a nearly monthlong span, resulting in four deaths.

The protestors denounced the tax on natural gas and electricity while also calling for a higher minimum wage. The protesters also expressed complaints that French President Emmanuel Macron was out of touch with his citizens.
