The president of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, proposed a Special Anti-Blockade Law for the Working Class to recover the lost income of all workers as quickly as possible.
“I call upon the working class to debate and act to start a dialogue, to discuss the special plan for an Anti-Blockade Law of the Working Class,” he said at an official event on Wednesday, July 17. “Discuss a special law to recover the income of the working class, in addition the issue of housing that is being debated. I have the plan and I have the project, I am the only one who has a plan for the benefit of the majority. We have the capacity to develop an autonomous economy at the service of the majority.”
The president also announced the launching of Credinómina, a special financing plan to cover the needs of Venezuelan families, with the creation of the Workers’ Digital Bank through Banco Bicentenario.

“I know that many workers, in order to alleviate the economic hardship, had to create an enterprise,” President Maduro stated. “That is why, in the framework of the creation of the Workers’ Digital Bank, we are creating a flexible financing line called Credinómina so that the people have access, through the Workers’ Digital Bank, for their entrepreneurship and that everyone can have a little money for useful things, proposed in the 7T Plan, associated with start-ups.”
He highlighted that the US-imposed economic war and unilateral coercive measures caused the Venezuelan economy enormous losses. “But our economy is back in full swing, it is growing in a sustainable way,” he stressed. “We are gradually creating and strengthening the new digital family health system for workers that will allow them to access through their payroll and ID card to a sustainable and quality health service.”
