Budget 2027: the finance bill arrives at the Assembly on Tuesday at the end of the day

Examination of this text will begin in the evening with the part dedicated to state revenue.

Already surrounded by the high school movement, concerns about purchasing power and the fear of a financial crisis, the government is opening another heated issue in the National Assembly on Tuesday, October 13. That of the state budget for 2027, more uncertain than ever due to lack of majority and the approach of the presidential election. The examination of this text, the last of the Macron presidency, will begin in the evening with the revenue section, which mainly determines tax revenues. The ambition is to return to a deficit of 5% of GDP in 2027.

A motion to reject filed by the socialists. The oppositions very poorly received the government copy, including the PS which had agreed to let the budget pass at the end of 2025. "In what the Prime Minister put on the table, in the way in which the first discussions took place, in particular with the central bloc, this does not let us see an outstretched hand", explained the leader of the socialist deputies Boris Vallaud.

What will the RN group do? If he votes against the text, the motion will undoubtedly be rejected and the examination will begin normally. If he votes for it, it will undoubtedly be adopted, sending the entire text back to the Senate for first reading. If Marine Le Pen's troops abstain, the vote will come down to mobilization.

The threat of a 49.3. Deprived of a majority, Sébastien Lecornu could resort, as in 2025, to article 49.3 of the Constitution, in exchange for non-censorship. “We managed to forge compromises with the socialists in 2025 and 2026. I hear the PS's demands for more social justice. We will have to talk about it,” assured David Amiel, Minister of Public Accounts.
