The National Congress approved on Thursday, 4, the new Budgetary Guidelines Law (LDO) for the year 2026, confirming the reduction of the expected adjustment for the minimum wage. According to the parameters of the LDO, the expected minimum wage starting in January 2026 was R$ 1,630, a value that was revised to R$ 1,627.

The LDO approved yesterday stipulates that the revenues collected from taxes by the government exceed the primary expenses of the Union by R$ 34.3 billion, that is, 0.25% of GDP. The approved law also brings a perspective for the coming years of increasing the surplus with the aim of stabilizing the public debt of the Union. For 2027, the target is 0.5% of GDP surplus and, for 2028, 1%.
