This afternoon, the deputies rejected the revenue side of the state budget, which had been largely reworked by their work. Only the left voted for the text, the other groups denouncing an excessive increase in the tax burden.
The deputies rejected on Saturday October 19 in the Finance Committee the first part of the 2025 budget devoted to state revenue, after having largely rewritten it by adopting nearly 200 amendments profoundly modifying the financial balance of the text.
A quarter of the 41 articles examined were deleted or rejected, including some emblematic ones such as electricity tax increases or the freezing of local authority resources. Without consequence at this stage, since the debate in the hemicycle next week will start from the initial text.
The left voted for the text, all the other groups, the RN and its allies, the presidential camp and the centrists of Liot voting against due to an excessive increase in the tax burden compared to the initial text, of 60 billion d euros according to Eric Coquerel.
