Casa Rosada convenes its political table before sending the 2027 Budget to Congress
The governing party called its legislative coordination core for Tuesday, with the budget debate and the parliamentary agenda in focus. Also among the topics are the Malvinas-related bill and political reform.
The national government will meet this Tuesday at Casa Rosada with its political table, ahead of sending the 2027 Budget to the Chamber of Deputies. According to reports from Clarín, La Nación, El Cronista and Ámbito, the meeting will be led by the Secretary General of the Presidency, Karina Milei, and will center on the administration’s strategy for the so-called law of laws.
According to those outlets, the meeting will also serve to organize the legislative agenda for the coming weeks. Among the topics the governing party will put on the table are the Malvinas issue and political reform, with special attention to the debate over the PASO in the Senate.
Clarín reported that presidential spokesperson Adrián Ravier confirmed at a press conference that the 2027 Budget will be sent to Congress this Tuesday. In the same vein, Luis Caputo said the bill will be presented with the expectation of a fourth consecutive year of financial surplus.
La Nación, Ámbito and El Cronista indicated that, unlike in previous years, no special presentation by Javier Milei or national broadcast is planned. According to those publications, the text will be filed through the Chamber of Deputies’ intake office.
On the parliamentary treatment of the bill, La Nación, Ámbito and El Cronista reported that the technical defense of the proposal will be handled by officials from the Ministry of Economy. Among the names mentioned is Carlos Guberman, while Luis Caputo is not expected to take part in that instance.
In parallel, Clarín reported that Ravier announced new complaints against companies over alleged hydrocarbon exploration and exploitation activities in the Malvinas Islands, under Law 26.659. La Nación and El Cronista added that the government is also working on a bill on national sovereignty linked to Malvinas, which is still undergoing final adjustments before being sent to Congress.
On the electoral front, La Nación, El Cronista and Ámbito said that political reform will also be part of the governing party’s internal discussion. The initiative includes eliminating the PASO, although La Nación warned that in the Senate there does not appear to be an easy scenario for gathering the necessary votes.
