President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva sanctioned on December 26, 2025, the law—previously approved by Congress on December 17—cutting 10% of federal fiscal incentives and raising taxes on betting houses, fintechs, and interest on own capital (JCP), projecting R$20 billion in 2026 revenue. However, he vetoed a congressional 'jabuti' clause revalidating nearly R$2 billion in parliamentary amendments from 2019-2023, citing unconstitutionality per STF rulings.
