S. Para can lose $ 361 million rupees In collection with the bill (PL) 1087/2025, which exempts from income tax (IR) with people with An income of up to 5 thousand dollarsAccording to the National Union of Municipalities (CNM). The proposal is suspended in the House of Representatives and may enter into force in January 2026, if approved. For the head of the FAMEP Municipal Associations Union, Nelio Aguariar, it is necessary to be The project provides compensation planEspecially for municipalities more dependent on the transfer of the federal group.
Aguiar states that both CNM and Famep are not opposed to the proposal, but the expectation of the text to amend the thinking of local facts. It indicates that the municipalities in the northern and northeastern regions deserve special attention, as many of them do not have great revenues. In the case of PARá, municipalities with a population relies almost exclusively on infrared collection and transporting the municipal participation fund (FPM), which are directly affected by this measure.
The direct assembly of infrared occurs when the municipalities retain a part of the tax in the source. FPM is calculated based on infrared and tax on industrial products (IPI), which expands the possibility of loss in municipalities. “These losses worry about us because it is not very clear in the project whether there will be a truly compensation or the federal government will do to compensate for these losses for the municipalities.”
Another interest point, according to Aguiar, is the destination of future revenues, which will come from taxes on top lace teams. The project expects a decrease in rates of those who earn between $ 5,000 and $ 7,000, and maintains a scale of 7.5 % to 27.5 % for income higher than this amount. “These additional revenues have not yet been clear that the government will get it, if this group is 100 % or if this segment of the cake will share with the FPM. Also, what will be done with the loss of appropriate assembly in the municipalities that will be inevitable.”
In practice, the expected losses can lead to a waiver of basic fields such as health and education, which has mandatory participation in the municipal budget. Even with this commitment, reducing assembly will directly affect the maintenance of services. “Every $ 100 RCNED from FPM, every $ 100 we gather with our own revenues, from some taxes there, necessarily intended for education $ 25, because in the constitution, 15 % necessarily go to health. So the main areas most affected by fall resources are education and health in particular.”
Negotiation
In response to the liberal group, CNM stated that “he behaves in Congress to ensure that there is no municipality in collection due to the proposal.” FAMEP, with the mayors in Barra, explains direct negotiations with parliamentarians. During the march of the mayor, to be held from May 19 to 22, the entity intends to intensify the dialogue.
“We have booked a room in the federal chamber, where we requested a agenda with federal bench, as we are the three Senate members and the 17 federal representatives by the state. We will fill all the mayors who will participate in the income march in Brazilia, and one of the agenda that we will specifically treat this bill that increases the income tax spoon.”
For the speaker, the best way is to apply the project with compensation expectations from other money. The next meeting is expected positive, given the opening of the House of Representatives and the Senate on this subject. According to Aguiar, they are wonderful allies of municipal reasons, and this would help open dialogues about municipal needs.

Economic effects
For Economists at Para Rafael Socia, the project must generate at least two effects: the need for structural corrections and stimulating consumption. The first includes adjustments to the general apparatus, such as fighting corruption and reviewing administrative structures. “There is a lot that can be improved and that would easily address the loss of revenues,” he says.
The second effect is related to the increase in the purchasing power of the population. “The population will have funds that have not had before. So it will consume more goods, and it will consume more services. Part of this value will become a tax as well, which will enter into municipalities, the state government and the federal government,” says Buhaousa.
It also indicates the possible third effect: the expansion of jobs, driven by increased consumption in the strategic sectors of the economy. This is due to the need for the sectors to meet the increase in consumption.
