Contrary to the Government, Martín Llaryora believes that the restitution of the Income Tax is “a mistake” and aims to tax “high incomes”

Martin Llaryoragovernor of Córdoba, said this Tuesday that “it is a mistake” the restitution of the fourth category of Income Tax due to how “depressed wages are” and that it would be more beneficial to aim to tax “high incomes” progressively. Thus, he contradicted the official position that put that requirement on the table for the debate on co-participation. as a claim from the provinces.

Interviewed on the TN signal, the provincial leader was asked what his position was going to be regarding the Nation’s proposal “to solve the fiscal issues of the provinces”, as the Minister of the Interior, Guillermo Francos, expressed hours before.

“If you ask me, it seems like a mistake (to restore profits). We have to ir for high income in a similar fourth category scheme leave the workers out and that it goes to high incomes,” said Llaryora.

The governor expanded. “In this frame with the recessionwith what’s going on, go back over wages that are totally depressed by inflationbecause the chainsaw and the blender That’s it, it seems to me that we have to go for high income,” he insisted.

“It may be that this is offered, there are other variables,” he responded to the question of what the Government will bring to debate in the preparatory meetings of the aforementioned May Pact promoted by Javier Milei. Llaryora seemed to want to make it clear that Profits is not the agenda of the governors or at least not of everyone nor a common demand.

Regarding the call for preliminary meetings with the Franco ministers, Luis Caputo, of Economy; and the Chief of Staff Nicolás Posse, the Cordoba president tried to prioritize the attempt at dialogue that arose, not without prior disagreements, from the Government.

“You have to sit down with an open agenda, but more than talking about income, let’s start to see how we produce because I see that everyone is in that part and we are not realizing that month by month, Argentina is going to enter a recessive process where will the increase begin? unemployment and we have measures to promote investments,” he warned

Then he became more alarmed. “Keep thatIn a couple of months the discussion will be different. Unemployment, recession and every month you lose, that the legislation is not there… For me that agenda is more important than the other,” he countered.

In the morning, within the framework of Expoagro where President Javier Milei was present, Francos had outlined that rolling back the change in Profits that Sergio Massa established in the middle of the electoral campaign “is a request from the governors.”

In his portfolio of complaints received, the Minister of the Interior put the concerns of the provinces about “solve your tax problems“and in that sense he proposed as an official counterproposal “the Implementation again from the income tax”.

Previously, Llaryora was in charge of clarifying that he is not asking for the restoration of the fourth category. “I I am not asking for Income Tax. “I think something needs to be done about high incomes, progressive, but not with a value that affects workers.”

Then he referred to another tax in which many governors have their claims placed on the Government, which would seem to be more reluctant to participate: the COUNTRY Taxto which Llaryora showed “no minor theme.”

“There was a percentage that was for interior works and that we we thought of sharing it and that seemed like a much better way out for us,” said the governor who likes to define himself as “a productivist.”

“I believe that what we have to do in That agenda is much more important. than the other”, he assured when asking to give more importance to measures for “production” than for the fiscal aspect.

“A fiscal plan without a productive plan falls apart because you need to generate employment So that there is production. So, I am willing to accompany that agenda in its entirety,” he said and almost pleaded with the Government in that sense: “”Che bring it, don’t take it out“.

The man from Córdoba maintained that “there is talk of the Omnibus law and the fiscal package” but he claimed “elements that favor production and employment” and questioned that this point, from the Government, “is relativizing“.

For Llaryora, the national proposal lacks “measures that mobilize the economy at the same time that the fiscal package is applied”,
