Highlights
”Tällaisessa tilanteessa yhteisöveron keventäminen ja vajaan miljardin euron verotulomenetysten aiheuttaminen, onhan se nyt vastuutonta politiikkaa, täysin vastuutonta politiikkaa.”
”Todella täältä Valtion Eläkerahastosta nykyinen hallitus on jo useamman pikavipin nostanut.”
Against · Increasing State Pension Fund transfers
”En pidä tätä järkevänä, että meillä on niin erilainen sääntely yksityiselle sektorille kuin julkiselle sektorille.”
In favour with reservations · Statutory cooling-off period for ministers
”Tämä itse esitys liittyen tähän CSC:hen ja sen hallinnoimien supertietokoneiden käyttöön ja varsinkin niiden käytön edistämiseen on erittäin perusteltu.”
In favour · Opening CSC supercomputer capacity to companies
”Mitä tulee itse tähän esitykseen, jota me nyt käsittelemme, niin tämähän liittyy enemmänkin nimenomaan hallinnollisen taakan vähentämiseen, ja tätäkin esitystä voi kyllä tukea.”
In favour · Mitigating carbon border mechanism penalties
”Kyllä nyt toivoisin, että tämä rahaa ei ole -politiikka myös tarkoittaisi siellä hallituksessakin sitä, että tätä yhteisöveropäätöstä arvioitaisiin uudestaan.”
Against · Supplementary budget for 2026

Cutting corporate tax, extending loss deductionsHE 151/2026 vpArvoisa puhemies! Kun tässä arvostamani verojaoston puheenjohtaja, edustaja Heikkinen kyseli, mihinköhän sosiaalidemokraatit käyttävät tämän yhteisöveron perumisesta mahdollisesti koituvan verotulojen lisäyksen, niin voin ihan suoraan sanoa, että valtion velkaantumisen pienentämiseen, niinkin yksinkertaiseen asiaan,…

Cutting corporate tax, extending loss deductionsHE 151/2026 vpArvoisa puhemies! Ehkä on vielä syytä palata myöskin siihen toiseen puoleen, joka tähän hallituksen esitykseen liittyy, ja sehän on se, millä hallitus nyt paikkaa ensi vuoden osalta tätä verotulomenetystä, joka tämän yhteisöveron laskun johdosta tapahtuu. Ja sehän liittyy tähän pikavippiin Valtion Eläkerahastosta,…

Cutting corporate tax, extending loss deductionsHE 151/2026 vpArvoisa puhemies! Professori Uusitaloa lainatakseni: tämä on vaalikauden huonoin talouspäätös. Näin osuvasti professori Uusitalo totesi muutama päivä sitten omassa kolumnissaan Suomen Kuvalehdessä, ja näihin professorin arvioihin on helppo yhtyä. No, miksi tämä on sitten vaalikauden huonoin talouspäätös? Ensinnäkin…

Vuoden 2026 kolmanneksi lisätalousarvioksiHE 226/2026 vpArvoisa puhemies! On hienoa, että täällä iloitsemme tästä verotulojen kasvusta, ja sehän johtuu palkkasumman kasvusta. Kun sitten samanaikaisesti kuitenkin palkkaa saavien osuus on pienentynyt, niin mistäs tämä kertoo? No, sehän kertoo siitä, että edelleen meillä työttömyys on pahentunut. Eli verotulokertymää nostavat…

Reforming self-employed pension contributionsHE 245/2026 vpArvoisa puhemies! Tässä uudistuksessa on monia hyviä asioita, joita on laajasti toivottu. Ja niin kuin täällä olemme kuulleet, itse asiassa aika monta asiaa kyllä jäi vielä jatkotyöhön. Mutta on nyt pakko kuitenkin sanoa, että kun meillä tässä salissa noin muutoinkin kaikilla on tämä keltainen kirja edessämme ja…

Increasing State Pension Fund transfersHE 231/2026 vpArvoisa puhemies! Todella täältä Valtion Eläkerahastosta nykyinen hallitus on jo useamman pikavipin nostanut. Kuuluisinhan on tämä ensi vuodelle koituva miljardin euron pikavippi, jolla hallitus pyrkii peittelemään valtion talousarviossa sitä vajetta, jonka yhteisöveron alennus aiheuttaa. Nythän me käsittelemme…

Reforming Keva's governance and investmentsHE 206/2026 vpArvoisa puhemies! Todella tällä uudistuksella pyritään Kevan, Kuntien eläkevakuuttajan, asiantuntemusta omassa sijoitustoiminnassaan entisestään parantamaan ja varmistamaan sitä kautta, että myös nämä korkeammat tuotot, joita tietenkin meidän sijoituksillemme haemme, realisoituvat, ja siltä osin näihin muutoksiin on…

Reforming Keva's governance and investmentsHE 206/2026 vpArvoisa puhemies! Tässä itse esityksessähän esitetään ihan järkeviä muutoksia meidän lainsäädäntöön, jonka tarkoituksenahan on se, että pidetään nimenomaan meidän eläkevarallisuudesta erittäin hyvää huolta. Kun näitä puheenvuoroja kuuntelen, niin kyllä varmasti aika monella pelko herää, että kuinkas hyvää huolta…

Valtion talousarvioksi vuodelle 2027HE 175/2026 vpArvoisa puhemies! Näin budjettiviikon päätteeksi voi jo varmaan sanoa, että ei uskoisi, että tämäkin keltainen kirja on yli 12 miljardia alijäämäinen. Kun näitä puheenvuoroja kuuntelee, niin aika paljon lisää pitäisi eri asioihin saada. Arvoisa puhemies! Puutun nyt oikeastaan vain yhteen asiaan tässä omassa…

Valtion talousarvioksi vuodelle 2027HE 175/2026 vpArvoisa puhemies! Puutun itsekin tähän kuntatalouden kokonaisuuteen. Nyt todella tämä viimeisin isompi uudistus, elikkä kun TE-palvelut ja myös se rahoitusvastuu sitten näistä työttömyysetuisuuksista todella siirrettiin kuntien vastuulle, teki kuntataloudesta ylipäätänsä huomattavasti enemmän suhdanneherkkää. Nyt kun…

Valtion talousarvioksi vuodelle 2027HE 175/2026 vpArvoisa puhemies! Tässä keskustelussa minusta on hienoa, että on todella laaja yhteisymmärrys siitä, että tilanteessa, jossa meillä sähkön tarve kasvaa, totta kai meidän täytyy kaikilla toimenpiteillä huolehtia siitä, että myös tuotanto kasvaa samassa suhteessa. Muutoin käy juuri niin kuin täällä on todettu, että…

Valtion talousarvioksi vuodelle 2027HE 175/2026 vpArvoisa puhemies! On erittäin hyvä, että täällä tästä toimintaympäristöstä kannetaan huolta, siitä, että Suomeen jatkossakin kannattaisi investoida. Hallituksella on nyt hirveä pelko siitä, mitäköhän tässä mahdollisesti tapahtuu. Monesti mainitaan tämä yhteisöveroalennus niin, että tämä on tämmöinen taikaluoti, jolla…

Valtion talousarvioksi vuodelle 2027HE 175/2026 vpArvoisa puhemies! Yleensä tämänkin pääluokan osalta hyvin vahva viestihän täällä salissa — ja yhteinen viesti — on ollut se, että toivotaan, että määrärahat, joita tännekin myönnetään, tosiasiassa menevät sitten operatiiviseen toimintaan eivätkä juuri ehkä niihin asioihin, jotka täälläkin nousivat esille, on kysymys…

Valtion talousarvioksi vuodelle 2027HE 175/2026 vpArvoisa puhemies! Aina kun tätä veromoukari-termiä täällä käytetään, niin hän, joka termin lanseeraisi ja saisi siitä rojaltit, olisi kyllä rikas. Se on ihan ymmärrettävää, että hallituksessa on hieman vaikeuksia keksiä edes omia retorisia tehokeinoja, mutta aina voi kopioida muilta. Arvoisa puhemies! Ajattelin kehua…

Valtion talousarvioksi vuodelle 2027HE 175/2026 vpArvoisa puhemies! Palaan itsekin vielä näihin talouden ennusteisiin. Täällä on käytetty oikein hyviä, rohkaisevia puheenvuoroja siitä, että tässähän meillä kaikki edellytykset olisivat sille, että talous itse asiassa saattaisi kasvaa Suomessa tulevina vuosina vielä entistä kovempaa tahtia. Mutta valitettavasti, niin…
