Rarely have a National budget and a Social Security budget provoked so many reactions and protests.

The absence of absolute majority in the National Assembly gave rise to a period of instability with the prospect of an overthrow of the government by Christmas if it uses article 49.3 of the Constitution to pass its 2025 Finance Bill and its Social Security Finance Bill.

Medef’s concerns

Medef de la Manche is concerned about the turn of the debates au parliament and measures and amendments envisaged to straighten the accounts of France. He opposes the increases in taxes and charges on the companies :

By adding in particular the 8 billion euros in corporate taxes, the 5 billion euros linked to the reduction in tax reductions, the 2.3 billion euros transferred from health insurance to complementary health insurance and therefore to businesses, the 1.2 billion euros in savings on learning aid and the 800 million euros in mobility payments, these are around 20 billion euros in additional taxes and charges that could be imposed on businesses. This increase corresponds to the salaries responsible for 400,000 jobs.

The patronage believes that this participation risks harming “thousands of companies, particularly the smallest, already weakened by an uncertain economic situation and by tough international competition ».

” THE load reductionsare not gifts given to businesses, but an investment in employment and competitivenesshe pleads. They allow employers to hire , to train et to maintain positions in a context where every job counts. »

“Protect jobs”

“By tackling these reductions, the political leaders take the risk of transforming a fragile situation in real crisis of employment. For business leaders, the choice is clear: more taxes or more jobs. »

The Manche employers are calling on parliamentarians of the department:

It is not too late to protect jobs and businesses.

In the current state of the parliamentary progress, the draft budget, rejected in the National Assembly, has just been transmitted to the Senate. In this room where the governmenta a majority the text could be adopted December 12, 2024 .

However, uncertainty continues to loom with a possible tabling of a motion of censure in the National Assembly which, if adopted, would lead to the fall of the government and the rejection of the finance bill.

This story is not yet entirely written but it is taking shape more and more, unless a joint joint commissionbringing together a delegation of deputies and senatorsfinds agreement on the same version of the finance bill.

In the event of disagreement, the Assembly will take control again… The soap opera, against a backdrop of political and economic uncertainties, is not over; the scenario remains to be written… around several legal hypotheses to give France a budget.
