The French National Assembly approved a stopgap budget law for 2026 to keep the state running into January after lawmakers failed to reach an agreement on the full fiscal plan.
The so-called loi spéciale, which was also used at the end of last year, allows the state to continue collecting taxes and borrow money despite the lack of a full budget. The law effectively rolls over 2025 fiscal plans into the new year and is expected to be approved by the Senate later Tuesday.
