And it is that in a communiqué of the party, overflows with his pair and chief of bench Alejandro Santana, they called on the opposition to approve the project of tax modernization with integration, because it is the “heart of the reform” and cleared any doubt To support the government’s initiative. “I insist on integration again-as the head of the bank said-because it is very important for SMEs, for small and medium enterprises. It is indispensable for them (SMEs) I have been reiterating all these days, “said Mario Desbordes.
Helmsman RN’s statement does not stop drawing attention, considering that two days ago he called the government to adjust the tax reform proposal and discard the “heart” of the Sebastián Piñera project, the reintegration of the tax system. “It seems appropriate to start thinking about adapting tax reform, leaving aside integration, which is what has locked the whole reform,” he said.

Also the minister Secretary General of the Presidency, Gonzalo Blumel, came to the passage of the sayings of overflows. “When we vote on the tax project and approve it, we approve it with an agreement that includes integration.

Santana: “We have only one opinion”
For his part, the deputy Alejandro Santana said that “we have only one opinion. We believe and are convinced that Chile more than ever needs to revive its economy, needs to maintain the rate of creation of more and better jobs. Chile more than ever has to give a accolade to the middle class and small and medium-sized enterprises that are the engine of the economy and the generation of jobs. ”
Santana also said that the bank trusts that a project will be achieved in which “reintegration-which is the heart of this reform-will not be excluded. We have a conviction, we have socialized it, we have a single look, not two or three, but the tax system that today governs we must change it in its form and in its fund. ”
Call to the opposition
Congressman Alejandro Santana questioned how the opposition has faced the discussion, accusing to misinform public opinion, putting the official against entrepreneurs, and Chileans who voted for the coalition of Chile Vamos because ” Within its campaign commitments (Piñera) was to transform the tax system and regain the growth rates it had in its first government and unfortunately fell during the government of Bachelet to a third of what We were growing historically. ”
Finally, Santana reiterated the call to the opposition to expedite the legislative process “We believe it is fundamental and important that the opposition leave that path of obstructionism and intransigence looking for externalities that are not real.”
