This Tuesday, in the City of Buenos Aires, a new day of mobilizations called by picketersagainst the management of Horacio Rodríguez Larreta.
The movements will march in protest against the housing policy of the Buenos Aires chief, for which reason, from the early hours of the morning, the picketers will be concentrated in 10 points of the City.
As indicated by the picketersThere will be marches at the intersections of Perito Moreno and Cruz, San Juan and Entre Ríos, Amancio Alcorta and Iriarte, Cobo and Curapaligüe, Mariano Acosta and Cruz, Céspedes and Triunvirato, Escalada and Eva Perón, Pola and Cruz, and in the area of the Tower of the English, in Retiro.
They will also do “mobilizations at the headquarters of the Institute of Housing, Human Development and Habitat, and the General Directorate for Women, to demand an urgent solution to this problem”which delves into the case of women who are “victims of gender violence”, according to the movements.
The call is made by the Polo Obrero, the Territorial Liberation Movement (MTL), the MTR Votamos Luchar, the November 17 Association, Barrios de Pie and Libres del Sur, among other organizations.
From the Piquetera Unit, they demand from the Buenos Aires Government a “definitive housing solution for tenants, the real urbanization of the villas and homes for victims of gender violence.”
In addition, that “access to housing for children be guaranteed, the suspension of evictions for tenants and members of recovered houses and the formal connection to the water network in all the blocks of the city’s villas.”
Other claims
The movements also march against the skyrocketing of prices, product of the economic and social crisis that we are going through. This does not exclude rentals, which in recent months have increased even above inflation. Faced with this they demand a solution and greater control.
Likewise, the organizations maintained: “The orientation of the Government of Larreta is in favor of the big speculators, approving laws and agreements that allow the construction of luxury homes, which have expanded in recent years, alienating public lands and green spaces, contrary to the needs of the majority”.
