Regional Budget Clashes Intensify in Castilla-La Mancha and Castilla y León as Statute Reform Moves to Congress

Opposition vetoes target the 2026 accounts in Castilla-La Mancha, with Castilla y León’s government seeking a wide accord before looming elections.

Overview

  • Castilla y León’s 2026 draft budget of €15,715.61 million opens its parliamentary process, with the economy minister urging the broadest deal to ensure stability for the next government.
  • PP leader Alfonso Fernández Mañueco accuses PSOE and Vox of trying to block those accounts and urges them to act responsibly rather than, in his words, torpedo the region’s future.
  • Castilla-La Mancha presents a €12,903 million plan that rises 1.5%, which the finance chief describes as focused on people, job creation and reinforced social spending.
  • PP and Vox file full-budget rejections in Castilla-La Mancha, citing low investment execution, AIReF warnings on spending rules and rising debt, with Vox alleging the plan preserves political privileges over real needs.
  • PSOE defends the Castilla-La Mancha accounts as socially ambitious and consensus-backed, while CCOO calls them adequate but pushes for stronger public investment and housing, and the region’s PSOEPP statute reform reaches Congress seeking broad support.
