Casa Rosada seeks to push legislative activity in the first months of 2025 and could carry out a call this week.
With an announcement from the presidential spokesperson, in December the Government made official a call to extraordinary sessions for the last two weeks of 2024. However, they never materialized. From that moment, the Executive reiterated its intention to be active in Congress outside the official calendar, but His will was limited to media statements.
Allied and opposition blocs told this medium that they were not informed about any call to meet in January or February. “The intention is there, but we don’t have a date,” they indicated from Pink House. “There is no definition about it. Nobody knows anything about that“, responded minutes later from the legislative block of Freedom Advances. “This negotiation is carried out by the Executive”they assured from the environment of Victoria Villarruelpresident of the Senate, explaining the growing distance with her running mate.
Even in this ambiguity, and even despite the reluctance of the shipowners of his bench of deputies, the Government does not rule out sending the call until February 15. Even that announcement could be published this week. “We are evaluating a set of issues to know if we call for the opening of extraordinary sessions in Congress”said the President this Wednesday, interviewed by El Observador radio. The parliamentary year is long and the Government wants to use it as a thermometer of social mood for its proposals.

Extraordinary sessions: the Government’s agenda
The legislative initiative that will occupy the axis of priorities of the ruling party is the political reform, which essentially includes the elimination of STEP elections. The libertarian structure stressed on different occasions that it does not adhere to a temporary suspension -as Peronism proposes- not even to one elimination of obligation -as the PRO wanted-: they aim for definitive repeal.
The calculations of Pink House They estimate that if eliminate the STEP The electoral calendar would be reduced, so there would still be time for the application of the new scheme this year. Beyond that, they interpret proselytizing convenience (they do not need to solve internal) and a incentive to his austere narrative (for the cost of an electoral instance). That whole scenario is altered if his insinuations of ally with leaders of the UCR and the PRO in Peronist districts. For this to be possible without primaries, They would have to subdue all the blocks that adhere to them.
Despite a recent accession of the PROFreedom Advances does not have the necessary support either for this project or for another of its main interests: the approval of the specifications. Ariel Lijo and Manuel García-Mansilla so that they integrate the Supreme Court of Justice. That is when they point to the political volume of Union for the Homelandwhich does not have a unanimous position on the PASSED but it has interest in an expansion of the members of the highest court, a reform that sounds increasingly friendly to the Executive.
