Against · Moving tax mail primarily to MyTax

Reforming basic education in the artsHE 115/2026 vpArvoisa puhemies! Kannan aivan erityistä huolta siitä, että nyt kun tämä uudistus tehdään ja tähän tulee mukaan uusia taidemuotoja, mikä sinänsä voi olla positiivinen asia, mutta samaan aikaan rahoitusta ei lisätä — ja senkin ymmärrän hyvin, että ei ole varaa lisätä — niin tämä lähtee heikentämään meidän toimivien…

Politiikassa pitää katsoa tuulilasista eteenpäin eikä peruutuspeilistä taaksepäin, ja silloin kun on kiitoksen paikka, pitää antaa kiitos, ja nyt on semmoinen paikka, että nyt tämä on tuotu tänne. Maailma muuttuu koko ajan, eivät nämä…

Olen edustaja Autton kanssa täysin samaa mieltä siitä, että erityisesti meitä kaikkia mutta myös kaupunkeja pitäisi kiinnostaa suomalainen ruoantuotanto ja sen omavaraisuus. Kuten viittasitte maailman kriiseihin, niin ne nimenomaan tuovat erityisen tärkeän merkityksen kotimaisen ruoantuotannon ja…

Kymmenellä miljoonalla eurolla lisätään maatalouden energiaveron tilapäistä palautusta, joka sinänsä on järkevä ja varmasti tarpeellinen toimi tässä tilanteessa, kuten täällä on edellä useissa puheenvuoroissa todettu.

Second supplementary budget for 2026HE 102/2026 vpArvoisa puhemies! Valtiovarainministerin mainitsemat myönteiset talousuutiset koskevat Suomen kansantaloutta, niistä me iloitsemme, ja toivomme, että ne jatkuvat. Ne uutiset valitettavasti eivät koske julkista taloutta. Kun Suomi nyt julkisessa taloudessa velkaantuu aivan ennätystahtia, työttömyys on Euroopan korkein,…

Raising central government borrowing authorisationHE 87/2026 vpArvoisa puhemies! Esittelin tuossa alkuun valiokunnan mietinnön, joka puolsi lainanottovaltuuden kasvattamista, ja nyt haluan kertoa, mitä mieltä olen henkilökohtaisesti tästä äärimmäisen vakavasta tilanteesta.

Arvoisa ministeri Rydman, mitä tapahtuu silloin, jos tätä nyt lainsäädännönkin mahdollistamaa palveluvalikoiman määrittelyä ei tehdä ja jos ei lähdetä puuttumaan niihin sisältöihin, kuten täällä edellä muun muassa edustajat Castrén ja Väyrynen viisaasti ovat todistaneet?

Legislating health and social service principlesHE 90/2026 vpArvoisa puhemies! Hallituksen esitys on tarpeellinen, ja sanon heti alkuun, että kannatan sen hyväksymistä. Mutta kysymys on kuitenkin vasta puitelainsäädännöstä, ei siitä, että tämän lain perusteella alettaisiin katsomaan, mikä on julkisten sosiaali- ja terveyspalveluiden palveluvalikoima.
