The attempt to proscribe Cristina Kirchner He collapsed in the Senate by just a vote. The law known as Clean filethey driven La Libertad advances and the PRO, was rejected with 36 votes in favor and 35 against. Two missionary senators decided to twist the arm of the Casa Rosada at the last moment and sank a project that carried a hidden but obvious objective: to leave the main political figure of the country out of the electoral map.
In the enclosure the cross reproaches broke out. The libertarians pointed fur against the missionaries Carlos Arce and Sonia Rojas Decut, while in the Victoria Villarruel Palcos tried to block the presence of Silvia Lospenno, author of one of the projects. From Union for the Homeland, on the other hand, the climate was celebrated. The Peronist bloc was the only one who voted against block, convinced that the law violated basic constitutional principles and had a name and surname.
While the libertarian ruling lost control of the board, the Casa Rosada tried to save the face with a statement written in record time, blaming the “State Party” and accusing the senators of betraying the people. But it was late. The defeat hurt more because it arrived just when Javier Milei faces increasing complaints for the Crypto $ Libra case, who already splashes his sister Karina. The same who wanted to disable CFK voted against challenging those responsible for that scandal.
The attempt to sanction a law with a trap not only failed: he exposed all the miseries of a coalition that decomposes. The PJ had clearly warned that he would not accept a clean tab made to measure to “dirty popular will.”
The most tense moment was lived when Wado de Pedro took the floor and said what many were silent: «Before they played the barracks door, now they play the door of the courts. Clean tab is a gangster method to eliminate adversaries ». The phrase resonated as a maza. Silvia Sapag was even more direct: «This is a gorilla to prevent Cristina’s candidacy. They wanted to kill her and now they want to proscribe her, like Oesterheld.
Clean file contradiction: prevented access to elections to politicians convicted only for corruption
The defenders of the law said it was a tool against corruption, but its scope was as limited as selective. It allowed drug traffickers or condemned for homicide to be candidates, but left outside political leaders with a second instance, although still innocent according to the Constitution. Cristina had already said that her intention was to compete for the province of Buenos Aires, and now, with the fallen law, nothing prevents it.
