He PRO welcomed the inclusion of the project Clean Sheet on the agenda of the extraordinary sessions, which will begin on January 20, although he objected to the decision to leave Budget 2025 out of the list of seven initiatives to be discussed during this period. “Its exclusion shows a worrying lack of desire for dialogueespecially in a political moment that requires broad consensus,” they pointed out from the party led by Mauricio Macri.

In that line, the PRO He emphasized that “the Budget Law is an essential tool that not only organizes, provides foresight and imposes limits, but also fosters democratic consensus” and warned that the Government’s decision not to deal with the project in this period “distances democracy.” participatory and reinforces an authoritarian vision, where there is no space for debate or joint construction.

Another chapter of tension between the PRO and La Libertad Avanza for the Clean File project

On the other hand, through the same statement published on social networks, the PRO highlighted the inclusion in Extraordinary of the Clean Record project, another of the points that had generated controversy with the ruling party in recent days.

The official spokesperson, Manuel Adorni, confirmed last Friday the call for Extraordinaries including a project of Clean Sheet designed by the ruling party. On November 27, it was planned that the initiative – on that occasion drafted by the PRO- was debated but the session fell due to lack of quorum due to the absence of 10 libertarian deputies.

Given this fact, the ruling party warned that the President suffered “defamation for months.” “Some sectors of Argentine politics believed that they were going to score a victory by accusing this government of alleged non-existent pacts or agreements,” the Government launched in a statement, where it also clarified: “There was no pact. There was no agreement. The only thing we wanted was to do things right. Not anything goes in politics. They should apologize“. The message alludes to the criticism that the PRO triggered after the episode of the fallen session.

In the same sense he had pronounced himself Adorni on their networks: “They operated, defamed, misinformed. Others just didn’t want to listen.“.

However, these acrimonies seem to have been left behind since the PRO now celebrated the inclusion of the project on the agenda of the Extraordinaries and there were no references to the Government’s attacks. On the contrary, they highlighted: “This initiative is a fundamental step to guarantee that those who access public positions do so with impeccable records, thus promoting more transparent and ethical management, something that we have been promoting for many years.”
