After the go-ahead from the Chamber, the Senate also gives the definitive green light to the Budget Law passed by the Meloni government. The approval, confidently, came with 107 votes in favor.
The majority are satisfied for having managed to get the text passed in extremis, before the deadline of December 31, avoiding the provisional exercise, while criticism is raining down from the opposition.
«Under the Christmas tree you found 12 amnesties worth 1.6 billion. We would like to understand what the citizens who pay taxes have done to you, why do you discourage fiscal loyalty?», said the leader of the Democratic Party, Simona Malpezzi , during the explanations of vote.
Malpezzi recalled the "cuts in health care, on schools, on precarious workers and the 230 million stolen from young people with the new eighteen-year-old bonus mechanism". «Let's say no - he added - to this very smoky and roast-free budget law which has left only the bad memory of wild boars with
which you are characterized".
For the M5S, the Maneuver is only "ideological fury and fluff". «A budget law so austere and restrictive that it is not remembered and in the year in which the European solidarity pact was still suspended. This law is nothing but a warm pannicello, said the pentastellata Alessandra Maiorino .
As for the contents of the provision, here is what the Budget Law provides:
ENERGY - Funds to support households and businesses covered thanks to the budget variance for 21 billion. Cutting of the improper costs of bills for everyone and a strengthened social bonus (the Isee ceiling goes from 12 to 15 thousand euros) for the poorest groups.
CUT OF THE WEDGE - Contribution exemption of 2% confirmed for incomes up to 35 thousand euros. The cut rises to 3% for lower incomes: the 20 thousand euros set in the maneuver exiting the CDM rise to 25 thousand euros. Productivity bonuses up to €3,000 are taxed at 5%.
