The president of the Republic, Luis Lacalle Poumeets this Friday with government coalition legislators to talk about different topics.
The meeting takes place one day after Lacalle announced the reduction in personal income tax that they pay a third of wage earnersand also a decrease in the Social Security Assistance Tax (IASS) that taxes the highest pensions. The measure involves a US$110 million tax waiverequivalent to 5% of what is collected from these two taxes in the last 12 months.
Pro-government legislators told The Observer that other parliamentary issues that will take place throughout the year will also be on the table at the meeting, such as Accountability, which is the last in which the Executive Power can increase spending before the elections.
The president has already summoned the official legislators to Suárez and Reyes for various issues. In 2022, for example, he summoned them in May to exchange on the social security reform that has already been approved in the Senate and is now being studied by Deputies.
