She argues that the IPI tax exemption on the purchase of automobiles for use in independent passenger transport or by people with disabilities is an important instrument to support independent drivers, who are growing in number, and to promote the inclusion of people with disabilities. In the current economic scenario, millions of workers struggle to find jobs and turn to independent passenger transport as a livelihood\u2014a sector currently greatly boosted by the use of mobile phone apps, the senator notes in the justification for the bill.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Mara Gabrilli points out that people with disabilities encounter countless barriers in public transportation and, in many cases, need adaptations to vehicles they own to make them accessible. As a result, they incur costs and difficulties that are only partially offset by the IPI exemption. Meanwhile, people with disabilities who do not need these adaptations receive, through the exemption, a small compensation for other costs and hardships still created by social barriers in our society, which still has a long way to go to become more inclusive, notes Mara Gabrilli.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">The author of Bill 5,149\/2020 also notes that the State assumed commitments upon the ratification of the United Nations (UN) Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities in 2008, with constitutional amendment status, pursuant to article 5, paragraph 3, of the Constitution.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">\u201cAmong the commitments as a State Party, we must take into account the protection of the rights of persons with disabilities in all programs and policies and, regarding economic, social, and cultural rights, to take steps, to the maximum of available resources, to achieve progressively the full realization of these rights (Article 4, General obligations),\u201d concludes Mara Gabrilli in the justification for the bill.<\/p>\n<p>Source:<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www12.senado.leg.br\/noticias\/materias\/2020\/11\/23\/isencao-de-ipi-na-compra-de-carros-por-autonomos-e-pessoas-com-deficiencia-pode-ser-prorrogada\">Senate Agency<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Aguarda vota\u00e7\u00e3o em Plen\u00e1rio o Projeto de Lei (PL) 5.149\/2020, que prorroga, at\u00e9 31 de dezembro de 2026, a isen\u00e7\u00e3o do Imposto sobre Produtos Industrializados (IPI) na aquisi\u00e7\u00e3o de autom\u00f3veis para utiliza\u00e7\u00e3o no transporte aut\u00f4nomo de passageiros, bem como por pessoas com defici\u00eancia.
