University financing: the measures of the students in the face of Javier Milei’s veto
After the massive Federal University Marchthree UBA student centers decided to occupy their respective educational headquarters to protest against the Government’s veto of the university financing law.

Each of the different headquarters will carry out the claim with its particularities.

The Government will appeal to Justice if the veto is not upheld
The Minister of Economy, Luis Caputo, supported Javier Milei’s decision and, last Sunday, assured that in the event that the Congress insists on the normhe Government will appeal to Justice. “I have to do what the law says but it would be good for deputies and senators to do so as well. The financial administration law says that Congress cannot present an expense without a financing counterpart that justifies it,” the minister justified.

In this sense, Caputo announced that the Government will “appeal to thatprobably through Justice, always within the framework of the law.”
Regarding the current conflict between public universities and the Government, Macri’s former minister stated: “We have given everything to the universities. Politics is mixed here. The only thing we say is: if you want to discuss whether teachers should earn more than the rest of the public employees, fine. Let’s debate it in Congress and define how that is financed, no problem.
“There is a clear fight between the old policy and the new. We seek transparency and the old politics is the owner of ostracism“he added.
Finally, Caputo urged to audit the institutions and pointed out against the University of Mothers of Plaza de Mayo. According to the Minister, “0.62% of the students received it, 16. 100 million were spent per graduate. It was almost cheaper to send them to Harvard“, considered.
