Melons, the government has given back to workers more than it took with fiscal drag

"Senator Furlan, who returned to the topic of fiscal drag, saying that the government would have taken billions of euros away from jobs and pensioners, should know that this narrative has been abundantly denied by various analytical institutes. Even the ECB has put in black and white that through income support interventions this government has given back more than it has taken through fiscal drain, helping employees in particular."

Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said this in the Senate Chamber, in her reply after the discussion on her communications in view of the European Council, responding to the Italian senator Annamaria Furlan.
