Kast Reconstruction Package Impact Simulator

How each measure favors or harms you, by socio-economic profile

President José Antonio Kast announced (April 15, 2026) the Reconstruction and Economic & Social Development Law: an omnibus package with 40+ tax, labor, pension, social, housing, security and reactivation measures filed with Congress. This simulator takes your profile (income, occupation, pension, health, housing, debts, benefits) and evaluates each measure one by one: it explains in plain language whether it favors or harms you, the CLP monthly/annual impact, and what you can do today to benefit or protect yourself. The catalog updates as Congress advances the bill from filing to promulgation.

What this simulator delivers

  • 1. Segment classification: your profile maps to population segments (middle class, SME, retiree, CAE debtor, Isapre, etc.).
  • 2. Measure-by-measure evaluation: each measure tells you if it favors or harms you, with monthly and annual CLP estimate.
  • 3. Actionable recommendations: what to do today to benefit or protect yourself.
  • 4. Legal basis & sources: each measure cites regulations and official press.
  • 5. Continuous updates: the catalog evolves with the legislative process.

How does it work?

The Kast Reconstruction Package Impact Simulator lets any Chilean citizen see, from their own socio-economic reality, how each measure of the omnibus bill announced April 15, 2026 affects them. It maps the user profile to population segments, evaluates each measure per segment and reports direction, magnitude and a monthly/annual CLP estimate plus a specific recommendation. The catalog lives in a versioned external JSON and updates as Congress advances the bill.

Formula used

Net impact = Σ (monthly impact of each measure per your segment). Overall direction = f(net balance / monthly income, count favorable vs adverse).
