The Senate is preparing to discuss this Wednesday the sanction or not of the clean file lawafter weeks of uncertainty and several toxicities that continued, until yesterday at noon, to thin the and put at risk the definition of this issue.

The meeting in the enclosure will at 11.30 and will also serve, among other things, to approve Argentine ambassadors in the United States (Alejandro Oxenford) and Spain (Wenceslao Bunge Saravia), y settle the discussion about the authorities of the upper , a maximum objective of the vice president and of the body, Victoria Villarruel.

Clean file Modifies eligibility rules for candidates for public office and would block those who have a confirmed condemnation in the instance related to crimes against public administration, as in the case of Cristina Kirchner.

The session was never in doubt, after the parliamentary carried out weeks ago by the block leaders with Villarruel, where a commitment to rubrics and the dialoguistic opposition was set. Nevertheless, The Casa Rosada had an erratic strategy in recent timesalthough it managed to delay the analysis of a project more than chewed in deputies and with a consolidated opinion in the Senate.

In the previous one, La Libertad Avanza reached the extreme of having level officials and the armored wills for the law, in parallel to operators who slipped the opposite. It will be interesting to see the movements of the next hours of usual provincial allies that committed support to the text in question. That is why the most experienced in Congress, always attentive to this type of scenarios, do not forget the importance of having quorum not only to start the session, but also for the to vote clean file.

It would be a true paper that something happens in that sense. Worth lowering the blind”, Said one Infobae. Another senator assured this media: “Session will be very difficult. Kirchnerism advanced, in parliamentary work, that it will ask for issues of privileges and preferences everywhere. Plus the authorities that we could not in February. AND Clean file is the issue, on which surely someone will suggest that they to . In this context, I would tell you that it will have to be very attentive from the quorum and until the last minute, in case any visionary requests to an initiative to make it modified or deputies”.

It is worth remembering that, being an electoral regulation, clean tab requires an absolute majority of votes. That is, 37. If one told the ruling already the dialoguistic opposition -pro, UCR, renovating missionaries, Santa Cruceños wild and the United Provinces allied bench, among others-, it reaches 38, versus 34 against Kirchnerism. Therefore, a panorama rather than tense for the next few hours. And, in the middle, the Zigzagueans of a on which some legislators – who accompany the Executive – do not rule out a new surprise.

Of course, if things go well, the Casa Rosada will resume the speech of having been, after striking blockages, the intellectual and author of a clean , with a pro more concerned with the copyright of a text that promotes years ago. With those assumptions he coexists in the Upper House. Not only with this topic.

As for the authorities, Villarruel urgently requires the green light of his new administrative , Emilio Viramontethat if you can handle the box – and the heart – of the Senate. The one for now Cordoba advisor has to resolve issues – some, sensitive – that accumulate not only of the legislators themselves, but also of the of the congress.

Two items concern. One of them is a serious inconvenience for retentions in the income tax, due to a precautionary measure. The renovated Human Resources department had to intervene, with a recommendation to “manage income”, in case of “retroactive adjustments”. This made several agents explode in fury. Meanwhile, the second is a project of resolution that Kirchnerism presented last night for Villarruel to make “all efforts” for “that the workers of this camera recover the level.”

Some of those who push this received, days ago, a petition that circulated through several offices, in which different complexities of recent months in the upper house were summarized, which are added to the salary. The initiative of everyone’s front only exposes – although the objective was to protect – the main mandams of Congress, NORBERTO DI PROSPERof app. After a long period of silence before libertarian management -criticisms are never against Martín Menemthe president of deputies-, the union machinery appears.

The distinctive thing about the brand new request is that if the reopens -something more than logical, at this point -, the senators will benefit from having their diets tied to it. It is what of tried to filter, in desperate mode, to put a gray cloud above the session. In yesterday’s parliamentary work, a single word of this was not heard. This will define clean file.

Before a potential unfavorable , the front of all stirred resolutions to the interpellation of the Secretary General of the Presidency, Karina Milei; and of the Minister of Economy, Luis Caputo. To the first, for the $ LIBRA case; to the second, for budgetary reasons.
