To overturn the veto of Mileiwhich would be published this Monday in the Official Gazetterejection by both Chambers with two-thirds of the votes of those present is required.
In the House of Representatives, La Libertad Avanza (LLA) needs to scrape together 83 votes to prevent the opposition from reaching two-thirds to reject the veto presidential.
On Friday, Milei received his allies in Casa Rosada in the midst of an open-air internal dispute between MAuricius Macri and Martin Menemwhom the head of the PRO seeks to remove from the presidency of the House of Representatives.
In the vote on the retirement mobility project in the chamber, the yellow party had a dozen absentees who will be key in the face of the insistence to overturn the veto.
Doubts about the PRO
If all the legislators of the PRO and MID of Oscar Zago accompanying the Casa Rosada to insist on the veto, the ruling party would have secured 77 votes. That is, it would still need 6 more to shield the rejection and block the possibility of the opposition blocs insisting on the law with two thirds of the votes, out of a total of 257.
LLA will have to go out and fish for support among the governors. For example, the three national deputies for Tucumán who respond to Osvaldo Jaldo They were absent from the session in the House of Representatives when the retirement mobility was approved, which increases pensions by 8.1%.
The bench Federal Innovation could also contribute votes for the ruling party, just like the deputies of Rogelio Frigerio through Entre Ríos and Chubut Jorge Avila aligned with Ignacio Torres, that are part of the Federal Meeting of Miguel Pichetto.
He Article 83 of the National Constitution It establishes that “if a project is rejected in whole or in part by the Executive Branch, it returns with its objections to the chamber of origin; the latter discusses it again, and if it is confirmed by a two-thirds majority of votes, it goes back to the review chamber. If both chambers approve it by an equal majority, the project becomes law and goes to the Executive Branch for promulgation. The votes of both chambers will in this case be nominal, yes or no; and both the names and reasons of the voters as well as the objections of the Executive Branch will be immediately published in the press. If the chambers differ on the objections, the project cannot be repeated in the sessions of that year.”
The vote counting in Congress to protect Javier Milei’s veto
In the enclosure of Deputiesthe vote in favour of the The retirement mobility law obtained 160 votes in favor and 72 against, with 16 absent and 8 abstentionswhich means that the Casa Rosada is 11 votes away from being able to protect the veto in the lower house.
In it In the Senate, the project vetoed by Javier Milei had obtained 61 votes in favor and 8 against out of a total of 72. It is a very complicated scenario to reverse since it should arrive to a floor of 24 votes to block the two-thirds vote against the veto.
That is why the entire strategy of the ruling party is mainly focused on the House of Representatives, where, however, nothing is guaranteed. ALL amidst the fracture of his own party and the crossfire between the PRO of Mauricio Macri, Martín Menem and Karina Milei.
“If I were Milei, I would think twice before vetoing.; it is not the same as the vital and mobile 82% that vetoed Cristina Fernandez de Kirchnerwhen the salaries were on the rise and it would have meant real chaos in the pension system,” he warned. Pichetto.
Besides, He warned Milei about the impact that some decisions have on the balance of powers and the correlation of forces in parliament. “The Government has not taken care of the majority achieved by the Law Bases and the Fiscal Pact. There is a style that defines him with the attack on Congress, that does not help,” he said.
The president of the bloc Deputies of the Federal Meeting warned the president that the veto of the pension reform “has effects and consequences.” At the same time, the legislator of the dialogue sector said thatThe Senate is close to the “special majority” of two thirds to achieve final ratification of the law.
The day after the approval of the pension reform in the Upper House, Pichetto He again called for calm from the ruling party in its attacks against the Legislative Branch.The Government should not dramatize, become angry, or attack Congress” held.
