Within the framework of economic proposals, which from various sectors; some from the coalition were made to the Government in economic matters, Manini was close. Especially in relation to recovering the purchasing power of people and the possibility of increasing the national minimum wage.

“Franca” Abdala said about the meeting with Manini
Meanwhile, the president of the PIT-CNT, maintained that the meeting with Manini was “respectful but frank.” He indicated that “these socio-economic proposals do not prevent the PIT-CNT from continuing to raise its banner of ‘truth and justice’ against impunity in the fact that our brothers and sisters of Relatives of Disappeared Detainees do everything possible to that they access the information on where their relatives are and that, obviously, we do not share a bill that speaks of house arrest for State terrorists”.
