Still without a fully closed agreement and without guarantees of approval, the ruling base in the National Congress tries to save at least R $ 15 billion from Provisional Measure 1303/2025, which establishes a series of tax transactions taxes.
“The government is trying to save most of it [da MP]. Save $ 15 billion, $ 17 billion. The government will have to make concessions. It is clear to everyone. But from today to tomorrow, there will still be a lot, ”said PT leader in the House, Lindbergh Farias (RJ).
The speech took place after a meeting, on Monday (6) at night, with the mayor, Hugo Motta (Republicans-PB), Finance Minister Fernando Haddad, governing chiefs and party leaders such as Gilberto Abramo (Republicans) and Pedro Lucas (União Brasil).
Originally, the government’s estimate was to raise up to R $ 52.4 billion with the MP between 2025 and 2028, according to information. Until the last update of this text, Zarattini had not yet filed a new version of the opinion, the last of September 24.
Among the main changes proposed by MP are a fixed rate of 17.5% of income tax for income from financial investments from 2026; The 12% increase to 18% of BETS revenues taxation and 15% to 20% of interest rate rates on equity.
In an attempt to reduce resistance, Zarattini even said last week that.
In editing the MP, the government proposed that these titles be taxed by 5%. Zarattini even increased taxation to 7.5%. However, it turned back.
The return of exemption was a claim of affected sectors, including strong pressure from the FPA (Parliamentary Front of Agriculture) for assessing that the taxation threatens the financing of private sector credit. With the retreat, the intention is to approve at least the backbone of the MP.
The MP has to be voted on the Mixed Commission and the plenary of the House and Senate until Wednesday (8), so that the text does not lose validity. Governors said that the text needs to go through the collegiate on Tuesday (7), even if it is modified later.
According to Lindbergh, some agreement will have to be built until Tuesday. In speech to journalists, he stressed a potential for revenue of $ 35 billion to the public coffers through the MP.
“If you win without being voted, the damage is very big. The damage is great in this year’s budget and next year’s budget. So, we are very hopeful that until this Tuesday we can reach an understanding.”
He again said that “there is no way to close the 2026 budget piece without [parte dessa] collection ”.
At the night meeting of this Monday, Haddad explained to the deputies the main points of the MP and its impacts on the collection of the Union, said Lindbergh.
Government leader in the House, José Guimarães (PT-CE) stated that “the thing is going well” and “will vote on Tuesday on the commission.”
Party leaders should still discuss the merit of the text and the changes this Tuesday with their benches. The governors themselves recognize that there are open points that depend on conversations in each party.
