Proposed Increase in Public Assistance to $40,000 Monthly

The administration has proposed raising public assistance to $40,000 per month, nearly doubling the current $22,000. If implemented, the initiative would channel $19 billion annually toward supporting vulnerable citizens and families. The increase is expected to ease basic expenses such as food, shelter, and healthcare, while boosting local commerce through higher household spending. Positioned as part of a broader social protection strategy, the measure reflects a long-term commitment to inclusivity, poverty reduction, and sustainable national development.
