Overview

• The proposal projects R$107.64 billion in revenue against R$126.57 billion in spending for 2026.
• Debt service of R$12.3 billion and an estimated R$5.7 billion fall in oil royalties and special participations account for most of the shortfall.
• Officials say the plan maintains investments in security, health and education and keeps payroll and supplier payments on time.
• The government says the deficit can be re-evaluated during execution as it pursues higher collections and spending reductions without disrupting services.
• Alerj must vote by year-end, and a separate federal debt program known as Propag could ease payments if the state joins, though key provisions still await congressional review.
