One week ago, it was Maximo Kirchner who demanded a pre-determination of quotas for raising the minimum wage. Now Serge Mass Advanced direct request Martin Guzman Update the law Profit So that “salary increase is not neutralized.” Growing pressure on the economy minister comes from within the ruling sector’s internal sectors And forces a young official to respond. This time he had to ensure that the word was renewed after paying the workers’s tribute, though he did not lack its reflection. DiscomfortHe called the next decision “pointless”.

“There are a lot of obvious things that take time!”– He answered immediately from the mass. As far as he could tell ᲔᲠᲘWhat prompted the head of MPs to send a public letter to Guzman to renew the minimum non-taxable income was that “Last year it took four months to regulate the law” Legislative sources promoted by the masses themselves. For their part, at the Palacio de Hacienda, they replied that Tigrense had taken this step because “Know that this event is close to being realized, maybe next month.. Guzman and Massa have not spoken personally on the subject, nor has the minister had any contact with Maximo Kirchner last week.

In any case, the practical effect of public pressure on Guzman had already been proven this Friday when the economy minister confirmed it. Official news agency Télam That “the floor from which the dependent workers pay their income will be renewed The function of inflation evolution“. That’s why Guzman called the next increase “obvious,” given that the price index reflects growth, which worsens purchasing power. And because the round of joint ventures demands an increase of about 60 per cent a year, which can be liquidated by revenue payments..

The Chamber of Deputies has a different view on the same facts. Massa and his technical team analyzed this According to the inflation forecast, about 350,000 employees who are not currently paying income will have to do so by the end of the year.. That is a 35 percent increase over the 950,000 currently taxed, thus diluting the original purpose of the law due to rising prices and wages: that they were busy. Less than a million people. For him, this is an important issue, as much as he wanted to bring it into law reform Private property An article that gives the executive the right to renew profits.

It was for this reason that Massa took the step and sent a letter to Guzman with which The minister was deducted from the political margin to delay revenue updates. One of the most frequently asked questions in Congress about government administration – and not just Guzman – is. Delay in taking actions that “sing”. The draft resolution was presented last week by Maximo Kirchner and a group of MPs Making a connectionIt was going in the direction that an installment of the minimum wage increase is expected. In this case, it was the Minister of Labor, Claudius MoroniWho responded a week later.

But Guzman preferred to pre-determine the event. During meetings with politicians, such as the governor of Formosa, Guild InsfranAnd entrepreneurs Energy sectorThe economy minister warned that “the floor from which dependent workers pay their income will be renewed according to the evolution of inflation.” Along the same lines, he argued that it is “Which the law reasonably establishes So that the benefits of the workers are not lost to inflation and Is what the government will do“. Almost to say that he had a size in mind and there was no need for a letter reminder.

In a letter he sent to Guzman, the head of the lower house confirmed this The tax-free minimum of $ 225,937 was delayed due to the evolution of inflation And pressure on wages and, consequently, those workers who were laid off began to pay taxes. In the text, who worked with a trusted advisor on tax issues, Mass Claimed to be reimbursed up to $ 265,000 in full reimbursement; “It was determined by the annual variation Average Taxable Remuneration for Stable Workers (RIPTE)“Considering the salary renewal agreed by the employees during this year.”

Massa recalled that “by law no. 27,617, amendments were made to the Income Tax Act (…) to facilitate the tax burden. Does not neutralize the benefits derived from economic and wage policies It took over the government, which is trying to sustain the purchasing power of workers and retirees. ” He added: “This proposal integrates the taxpayers’ progressive tax incentive scheme and allows 2021 yearWhat 1.5 million employees stop paying revenue“In 2020, this tax was paid by 2.3 million employees, and in 2021 it became 800 thousand,” he said.

Following the nomination of the President of the lower house and the leader of the Renewal Front, one of the forces of the ruling coalition, CGT The statement supported the initiative. “We have been working since the beginning of the current round of parity, which continues to develop, so that the wages received at the negotiating table are not affected by the tax incident and the values ​​at which workers are taxed. Has been renewed, “the trade union confirmed. “We understand that changing existing funds (income tax) is an act of strict social justice.Said CGT.
