Law of Budget of the Nation 2018 will be consigned to the ANC

The President of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, announced that in the next few days will be consigned to the National Constituent Assembly (ANC) the National Budget Law for 2018, which stipulates more than 70% in social investment.

From the act of beginning of the winter harvest cycle 2017, in Portuguesa state, the Head of State reiterated that the “Carnet de la Patria” (Homeland Card) system is the central axis in the social scope of the socialist system that is under construction.

He stated that he will send the Executive Vice President, Tareck El Aissami, to consign the National Budget Law before the ANC. He recalled that last year he consigned the Budget Lay before the TSJ, because the AN is in contempt.

“Because they (The National Assembly – AN) said that they would not approve the budget for 2017 for Maduro. We would not be able to pay salaries, pensions, alimentation tickets, we would have had to stop the Great Mission Housing Venezuela … we would have had to stop the country, that’s what they wanted”, he explained.
