D66 and CDA reach agreement with the left on tax plan, no response from VVD
Jesse Klaver from PRO discusses intensive negotiations regarding a tax plan that raises wealth tax by 1 billion euros to lower labor tax. The original proposal included a 1.5 billion euro shift but was adjusted after feedback from coalition partners CDA and D66. The coalition is set to vote on the tax plan, which likely has majority support despite potential opposition from VVD. The coalition has agreed to allow different voting among its members if necessary. The revised plan removes controversial elements and introduces a top rate of 38.5% on wealth gains over 60,000 euros, while also targeting tax avoidance strategies.
