The ruling party has a race against time

2024-05-12 03:09:00

Libertarians and their allies in the Upper House have a race once morest time in the Senate to try to pass the “base law.” This Monday the treatment in commissions will resume, and the ruling party will try to issue a ruling on Tuesday, in order to sanction the rule on Thursday the 23rd.

It is a race once morest time, taking into account that President Javier Milei aims to reach May 25, when he will lead the “May pact” in the city of Córdoba, with the law sanctioned.

The treatment of the “base law” and the fiscal package will be resumed this Monday at 3 p.m. in the plenary session of the General Legislation, Constitutional Affairs and Budget commissions.

Libertarians and allies, including Luis Juez from Córdoba, are working to try to obtain a ruling on Tuesday, which would leave a chance to approve the norm before May 25.

However, libertarians have many obstacles, since some senators who might vote in favor, such as the radical Martín Lousteau, are setting conditions.

There are also other senators who ask for changes to the text that came with half the approval of Deputies.

Guadalupe Tagliaferri (PRO), Mónica Silva (Río Negro) and José Carambia (Santa Cruz) are some of those who are allies, but with criticism of the project. Alejandra Vigo (PJ-Córdoba) is also identified as a senator who might condition some articles of the project. Although her entourage has said that she will vote in favor of the rule.

While the ruling party does its job, the Kirchnerist senators (Unión por la Patria) are also in full force, trying to prevent the passage of the law.

The senators who respond to Cristina Kirchner seek to delay the sanction of the norm as long as they can.

Although it is unlikely that they will be able to prevent approval, by order of the former president, the Kirchnerists will try to have some articles modified so that the project returns to the Chamber of Deputies.

In any case, it would only be gaining time, since if the changes in the Senate are made by a simple majority, in Deputies, the libertarians and allies have the votes to ratify the text that has half a sanction.

Although if the discussion returns to the Lower House, the libertarians will not be able to comply with the request made to them by the President of the Nation to have the law sanctioned before May 25. In this context, libertarians will start a fight once morest time this Monday.

Cristina Kirchner criticized the President once more

Although it was not announced, former president Cristina Fernández de Kirchner took advantage of an event this Saturday on the 50th anniversary of the murder of priest Carlos Mujica to once once more question the management of president Javier Milei.

The former president criticized the social policy of the national government. “They don’t send food to the canteens, the canteens have no money for food, people eat once a day. “Some eat on a Friday and eat once more on Monday,” said the vice president of the previous government of Alberto Fernández.

Then, he insisted on comparing today with what happened in the years of the last dictatorship. “I hear all the time and among colleagues, how it can be possible that there are people who support these things. “When the coup came, following the death of Father Mujica, of ‘Pelado’ (Enrique) Angelelli, there was a time when the violence in Argentina was tremendous and broad sectors of society ignored it, and said something must have been done,” Cristina Kirchner emphasized.

In another part of her message to a few people at the Instituto Patria, Cristina Kirchner insisted on the message she had given at an event in Quilmes, when she asked the Peronist militancy to go out and “talk to the people.”

“Maybe at that time they were unaware of what was happening, maybe they believed in the media, but what I want to say is that if we teach, if this anguish that is felt in the neighborhoods we can transform it into teaching, into organizing, going out, things They are going to change. “We cannot not worry regarding what happens to others,” the former president concluded.
