The vote was almost unanimous. The National Assembly voted, Wednesday, July 20, the revaluation of social benefits and retirement pensions of 4 %, during the examination at first reading of the bill on purchasing power. In addition to pensions are concerned, in addition to the retreats, family allowances and social minima, such as the RSA, the allocation to disabled adults (AAH) and the student scholarships issued on social criteria.
This revaluation will take effect from July 1, 2022, retroactively, without waiting for the date of annual automatic revaluation. The rapporteur of the majority, Charlotte Parmentier-Lecocq defended an article which will “make purchasing power to the French this summer” and allows “to anticipate”. For its part, the left alliance Nutpes denounced, by the voice of Adrien Quatennens (LFI) and Arthur Delaporte (PS), a revaluation “lower than inflation”. “Jupiter (…) balances from Olympus crumbs with simple mortal”, quipped the elected RN Laure Lavalette, denouncing a revaluation “which in no way corresponds to the reality of inflation in our country”. The price increase reached 5.8% in June but could increase to 6.8% over one year in September, according to INSEE.
In detail, this measurement pensions and disability pensions of basic regimes are notably concerned, already automatically revalued by 1.1% in January. Also affected by this measure, family and minimum social allowances, namely active solidarity income (RSA), allocation to disabled adults (AAH), solidarity allowance for the elderly (ASPA) and scholarships on criteria social for students. Some of these social benefits had already increased by 1.8% in April. 2> “The question of wages is your big taboo”
Previously, the deputies voted an article to encourage branches to sign agreements on their minimum wage, in order to avoid too crushed grids in the first levels. Modem Nicolas Turquois praised an “additional tool” with “the branch approach”. LFI has castigated the measure. It is “the article Ponce Pilate, we wash our hands”, according to François Ruffin, a “classic to justify the inaction” on the wage increases.
The RN voted even if it is “terribly minimalist”, “do not count on us to stop there on wages. The question of wages is your big taboo,” said Jean-Philippe Tanguy. The vote was almost unanimous.

The day before, on the second day of examination of the bill, the deputies had voted for the continuation of the “Macron premium”, an exceptional exemption and de -signing premium, as well as the facilitation of the interest in business, a measure criticized by the new Ecological and Social People’s Popular Union (Nuts) during examination.
