National Rally leader Marine Le Pen and deputy Jordan Bardella presented their fiscal program Tuesday at Paris headquarters. It targets 140 billion euros in net savings by 2032, a primary budget balance in 18 months, the deficit at the EU 3 percent limit by 2030, and national debt down 10 points in five years.
Cuts of 85.5 billion euros would cover 12 billion euros from stopping housing, medical care, and other benefits for foreigners plus tighter border controls. The party would leave retiring civil service posts vacant and forecast over 45 billion euros from reviewing social security and pensions, aiming to bring debt from nearly 120 percent of GDP toward 60 percent.
Le Pen said taxes rose nearly 350 billion euros during Macron’s presidency with 17 billion more planned, public spending’s GDP share in 2026 matching 2012, and default looms without political change as the record hits family purchasing power.
