Several measures could be announced as part of the bill on purchasing power, including a check for the most modest motorists. The right proposes to block gasoline prices at 1.50 euros.
At the pump, prices continue to soar. Whereas can the government do? A check for all those who go to work by car, or a price freeze for all? “I’m not a big roller, I’m retired, so I prefer the price at the pump, the direct reduction”said a motorist. “I think a check would be nice”tempers another. The Ministry of the Economy is working on targeted financial aid: a fuel check.
“It is a compensation that would concern all those who work, all those who are obliged to take their car to go to work, and obviously according to the level of income”declared Bruno Le Maire, Minister of the Economy, on the morning of Tuesday July 5 on France Inter. Conversely, the opposition pleads for the freezing of fuel prices by reducing taxes. For example, the right offers a maximum of 1.50 euros per litre. A project that would cost 50 billion euros according to the executive. The fuel check will be proposed in the purchasing power law at the end of the week, then discussed in the National Assembly.
