Remarkable: An unheard of list of topics not covered due to fall sessions

The month of February ends, and with it the Government’s expectations that it can deal with projects in extraordinary sessions: did not reach a quorum and none of the 28 initiatives will be discussed who sent Executive power according to Congress try to approve it before the beginning of the legislative year.

First, the president, Alberto Fernández, sent 27 invoices for outstanding processing which later, by decree and in the middle of the trial, Lucius’ law was addedwhich seeks to implement change after the murder of a child at the hands of a mother and her partner.

Frente de Todos is not the first time to face this situation: In 2022, the president also called emergency sessions after a serious failure in the previous year’s elections, but the resignation of Máximo Kirchner from the bloc and the delay in sending the agreement with the IMF stopped the approval of the projects.

This year, with very good numbers to reach the quorum held by the ruling Frente de Todos party, he added the resignation of four senators to form their own bloc in the Upper House and the impeachment of the Supreme Court which destroyed the bridges between the various parties that make up the Congress.

Projects not handled outstandingly

Among the 28 projects that made up the Executive Committee’s final submission to Congress, there were a few about which there were not many doubts about his approval, such as the restoration of government, the creation of national parks or the Zero Alcohol Lawsomething that began to be implemented in the province of Buenos Aires in recent months.

Others you could pass through this filter were the approval of the president to leave the territory this year (something bureaucratic) or changing the current system that residents have healthcare teams in hospitals and clinics.

But the agenda also included, for example, voting for a new attorney generalsomething that has been delayed since the beginning of the government of Alberto Fernández, who ran for judge Daniel Rafecas but without the support of his vice president, Cristina Kirchnerand they hoped it would not come out as law.

there was also the trial of the Supreme Court, a process in which witnesses from members of the judiciary testified on Thursday, but for which the ruling party does not seem to have the numbers to allow the removal of five members of the highest court.

It was also on the agenda Pension debt repayment plan or a moratorium that will allow more Argentines to retire in 2023 – opposed by several blocs – and a package economic measures requested by Minister Sergio Massabut this must be resolved in the regular process over the next few months.
