The PRO and UCR blocks meet tomorrow in the Senate for the special session requested to expel Edgardo Kueider.
The block of PRO senators will meet on Tuesday at 1 p.m. to define whether they support the expulsion of the Entre Ríos native Edgardo Kueider in the special session requested by Unión por la Patria (UP) before Victoria Villarruel. The UCR There will also be a bloc meeting and cross calls have already begun between the “dialogue” spaces to agree on a strategy that prevents UP from keeping Kueider’s seat in the Senate through his replacement, Stefania Cora, leader of The Campora.
While in the Executive Branch they try to keep the premises closed so as not to lose an ally, in Freedom Advances The alarm lights went on due to the support of Luis Judgehead of the Macrista party, to the dismissal process of the legislator arrested red-handed in Paraguay with 211 thousand undeclared dollars.
In the PRO they are still chewing on the anger of the fall of the session to vote on the Clean File project that ended with a cross of accusations between Mauricio Macri’s party and the national government. From the PRO they denounced an alleged pact between Javier Milei and Cristina Kirchner to block the initiative in exchange for the re-election of Martin Menem as president of the Chamber of Deputies.
The PRO in the Senate
Different species coexist among the seven members of the PRO in the Senate. From Guadalupe Tagliaferri, with a profile more opposed to the Casa Rosada and close to Horacio Rodríguez Larreta, to Alfredo De Angeli, the Cordoban Carmen Alvárez Rivero and the missionary Enrique Martin Goerling Lara. “There are some senators who move according to Milei’s request. So tomorrow we will see what defines the bloc,” explained a member of the bloc led by Judge.

While the national government tries to tacitly shield Kueider from losing a vote in the Senate, worrying signs are beginning to arrive from the PRO for Javier Milei. This weekend, almost anticipating his vote in favor of Kueider’s removal, Judge warned: “I don’t care if we lose the majority or who is going to replace him, what Kueider did hurts us enormously and there should be no speculation with this issue”.
Kueider’s replacement would be Stefania Cora, provincial deputy of Entre Ríos for La Cámpora. If his landing in the venue takes place, it would be the 34th new vote of pan Peronism that would be just two more seats away from dominating the quorum in the Senate.
Blockade of La Cámpora
While Casa Rosada threatens to expand the menu of extraordinary sessions to include a project to eliminate the privileges for deputies and senators, the opposition blocs began to design an intermediate solution to exclude Kueider from the premises but without expelling him to prevent that seat is occupied by the legislator from La Cámpora.
Kueider formally requested leave. Thus, some sectors of the UCR and the PRO would be inclined to reject the expulsion request promoted for this Thursday by Unión por la Patria and instead vote for a leave without pay until justice is issued. This is an intermediate solution that would take away a vote from the ruling party but would prevent the seat from being occupied by a legislator with a clear opposition profile like Cora from Entre Rios.
Meanwhile, Congress remains ironed. Nor has the call for extraordinary sessions that had been announced by Manuel Adorni through the social network meeting of the health commission.
