The national government’s request to the provinces to apply tax reduction measures had a similar impact in Chubut.
The provinces begin to adhere to the national position. After the national government announces the rtemporary reduction of withholdings to agriculture and urge tax reform in the districts, Rogelio Frigerio will propose the reduction of Gross Income and the stamps in Entre Ríos. The president made the decision on the same day as the Governor of Chubut, Ignacio Torres, also referenced with the PRO.
Through his social networks, Frigerio assured that in Between Rivers “We lowered public spending and, with 20% less resources, we went from a province with a deficit to having fiscal balance.” “Besides, We presented in the Legislature a project to reduce gross income and stamps, and we will continue on this path until they are eliminated, as we already did in some sectors,” he explained.
The official argued that “both are regressive taxes that discourage production, investment and job creation” and concluded his message: “With a lot of effort, we managed to fulfill our responsibilities and pay all debt maturities in inherited dollars of the previous management”.
The governor’s announcement occurs after the press conference where the national government details the scheme for the temporary reduction of withholdings on agricultural production. There the Minister of Economy, Luis Caputo, said: “It would be good if The demands also begin to concentrate at the level of provinces and municipalitiesbecause there is a very clear difference in the effort we are making at the national level. “There are provinces and municipalities that are charging more and more distortive taxes; the most distorting is gross income,” he stated and requested: “Expose all the provinces and municipalities that are not aligned with the Government’s economic policy”.
