Fiscal and social challenges in Rondônia

Overview

The state of Rondônia is facing significant financial and social challenges. The Court of Accounts of the State of Rondônia (TCE-RO) issued a warning regarding an “extremely worrying” fiscal situation, noting that over 90% of state resources are committed to mandatory expenses. This leaves little margin for investments in 2027 and highlights structural issues in education, infrastructure, and public health.

Complementing these fiscal concerns, political figures have highlighted rising household debt among residents, with nearly 700,000 people currently indebted due to high living costs and interest rates. Additionally, concerns have been raised regarding the impact of online betting platforms, which are described as a “plague” that contributes to financial ruin and places increased pressure on the Unified Health System (SUS).
