The president Javier Milei has taken a significant step in Argentine politics by communicating with Congresswoman Silvia Lospennato to express her willingness to move forward with a new Clean File project. This initiative seeks to prevent people with confirmed criminal convictions from running for elective positions, an issue that has generated intense debate in the country.

Lospennato, one of the main promoters of the project, gave a forceful speech after the end of the session, in which she criticized the absence of deputies from all parties and pointed out that impunity continues to be a very powerful problem in the country. His words resonated in the political and media sphere, generating a strong impact.
Criticism
In response to these criticisms, Javier Milei decided to take action on the matter and reaffirm its commitment to the fight against corruption. In his communication with Lospennato, the president made it clear that he is willing to work on a project that is not perceived as a tool to exclude specific political figures, but rather as a standard that is applied fairly and equitably to all cases of corruption. .
The Clean Record initiative has been the subject of controversy since its conception. Some political sectors have accused its promoters of using it as an instrument to ban certain candidates, in particular former vice president Cristina Kirchner, who has a confirmed conviction in the Roads case.
