Today, the Chamber of Deputies faces a crucial debate on the president’s veto Javier Milei to the financing law of national universities. This veto has generated great controversy and has put the Government in a delicate position, since it needs to secure the votes necessary to support the presidential decision.
However, the result of the vote is uncertain, and the ruling party has been negotiating until the last moment to try to achieve the support of the dialogue spaces. The president of the Chamber of Deputies, Martín Menem, has been leading the negotiations to obtain the necessary support and sustain the veto of Javier Milei.
The situation is tense, since the ruling party does not have the numbers guaranteed to ratify the veto of Milei. In this context, speculation about absences and last-minute backups has been constant. The presidential veto has been a topic of great debate since its announcement.
The financing law for national universities is seen by many as essential to guarantee quality and access to higher education in Argentina. However, Milei has argued that the law is fiscally unsustainable and that deeper reform of the education system is needed.
The opposition, for its part, has harshly criticized the veto and has promised to use all the democratic tools at its disposal to overturn it. Representative Graciela Parola, from Unión por la Patria, has stated that opposition legislators are determined to secure the budget allocated to universities and defend the rights of students and workers at public national universities.
The threat of judicialization is also present in this debate. If the opposition manages to insist on the initiative and override the veto, the Government has warned that it will take the case to court. This possibility adds an additional layer of uncertainty to the already complex political landscape.
