The reform of the State proposed by the president Javier Miley In the omnibus bill that was submitted to the National Congress this Wednesday, it provides, among other points, the modification of the current composition of the Chamber of Deputiesfollowing the latest Census data and reducing its number of legislators in three members.
The changes known this followingnoon increase the representation of some provinces, such as Buenos Aires, which would add 27 new legislators, and affect that of otherslike Neuquén and Río Negro, which with this scheme would lose one deputy each.
From the reform promoted by Milei, the minimum flooror goes from 161 thousand inhabitants to 180 thousand, or a fraction of no less than 90 thousand deputies per seat. But it also eliminates the minimum of five deputies per province.
This change directly affects the representation capacity of the least populated provinces of the country in the Lower Houseamong them, Neuquén and Río Negro, as well as the rest of the Patagonian regions.
What would the composition of Deputies look like with the Milei reform?
Thus, the province of Buenos Aires would go from 70 national deputies to 97while CABA would drop from 25 to 17. Tierra del Fuego would also give in with this schemegoing from five deputies to just oneWith two seats, of the current five, Santa Cruz, La Pampa, La Rioja and Catamarca would remain.
three deputies will have the provinces of San Luis, Chubut and Formosawhile Neuquén and Río Negro will go from five to four representatives.
San Juan would lose one and be left with five, just like Jujuy. Santiago del Estero would change from seven to six, Entre Ríos from nine to eight and Chaco from seven to six.
On the contrary, with the modification there would be more deputies Tucumán, which would rise from nine to ten; Santa Fe, which would go from 19 to 20; and Salta that from the current seven it would escalate to eight. Also Mendoza, which would go from 10 to 11, and Córdoba, which would jump from 18 to 21.
