Technicians from the economic team and advisers to President Jair Bolsonaro (without a party) reported that the government should not pay the thirteenth salary to the beneficiaries of Bolsa Família in 2020. However, the Ministry of Citizenship, the program manager, has not commented on the subject.
In 2019, the Bolsonaro government issued a Provisional Measure (MP) to pay the 13th salary for this group. However, the plan was for the benefit to be awarded only once, so that the president would only fulfill a campaign promise. Therefore, the text was timely, providing the extra salary only in 2019.
The opposition wanted to make the thirteenth permanent salary for those registered in Bolsa Família. Additionally, I wanted to extend the Continuous Installment Payment Benefit (BPC) additional payment. As it is welfare aid, the extra salary is not provided by law.
However, at the beginning of the year, the government acted so that the MP expires. In this way, the payment of a 13 for those registered in the Bolsa-Família would depend on the edition of a new deputy or the sending of a bill to the National Congress.
13 for Family Bag
A technician from the economic team said that the payment of the extra salary to the beneficiaries of the program is not in debate. According to him, with the payment of emergency aid, those registered in Bolsa Família received an income transfer higher than the average value of the program, of just over R $ 190.
“People received at least R $ 600 for five months. This amount is much higher than that of Bolsa Família and would be equivalent to 14 and 15. If we pay 13 for the beneficiaries of Bolsa Família, will we also have to pay those who receive emergency aid? It is not clear. But this decision is political and depends on President Bolsonaro. But there are no debates about this in the government ”, said the technician of the economic team.
Bolsonaro’s advisers also stated that the payment of Bolsa Família’s thirteenth salary is not discussed by Planalto or by the legal advisers of the Civil House and the General Secretariat of the Presidency of the Republic.
