The claim

全国民に2万円給付のために税金を増やす?

Original review summary

The review says the claim that taxes would be increased to fund the payment is incorrect: the proposed funding source was revenue exceeding the 2024 fiscal-year tax forecast, not a tax increase. It reports that Shigeru Ishiba announced a ¥20,000-per-person payment as a ruling-party election pledge on June 13, 2025.[S1]
