The Measure Could Impact Millions Of Workers Who Depend On These Transfers To Support Relatives

The presidential campaign of Donald Trump in the United States gains another controversial chapter that promises to hit the Brazilian community abroad hard. The former president proposed a new tax on the money sent by immigrants to their families in Brazil. The measure could impact millions of workers who depend on these transfers to support relatives.

Brazilians In The USA In The Crosshairs: What Is Behind This Proposal?

The idea, according to Trump himself, is to raise funds to finance security actions at the American borders, such as building a new wall between the USA and Mexico. “Anyone sending money abroad will have to pay for it,” the former president stated defiantly.

For Brazilians living in the USA and sending money regularly to Brazil, this news hit like a bombshell. Approximately US$ 4 billion is sent annually by Brazilian immigrants, according to financial market data. If the proposal is approved, these amounts will face an immediate deduction with the new taxation.

The Direct Impact On The Pockets Of Immigrants And Families In Brazil

The measure does not only affect immigrants, but also the millions of Brazilians who depend on this money for basic expenses such as food, health, and education.

Political analysts point out that the proposal has strong electoral appeal among Trump’s conservative base but could generate strong resistance from the international community and even American banks.

Real Risk Or Political Maneuver?

There are still no details on how and when the proposal could be implemented, but the signal is clear: Trump wants to turn the sending of remittances into a new source of government revenue. International relations experts warn: “If this moves forward, it could create a diplomatic crisis between the USA and Brazil.”
