In addition, “urgent public works will be prioritized, such as the repair and/or construction of homes and facilities, prior technical study that allows establishing the efficient allocation of funds.”
History in the Senate
It is worth remembering that the project had achieved half a sanction last week in the Upper House, in a session full of controversy after the abstention of the senators of La Libertad Avanza, who argued, at that time, that there was no designation of budget items to face said emergency.
At that time, before the declaration of Environmental, Economic and Housing Emergency in areas affected by the fires in Córdobathe block holder Freedom Advances, Ezequiel Ataucheclarified that both he and two other party colleagues would vote to abstain because “There are no assigned items and there are some issues that are not clear to us.
After Atauche’s intervention, the woman from Córdoba Alejandra Vigo considered her position “extemporaneous” and raised his concern about “Argentina’s position regarding UN resolutions that have to do with climate change. It would seem very good to me if we could have time for that debate.”
“It is the first time that the three senators of Córdoba have managed to agree on a project,” he later noted. Luis Judge at the beginning of his speech, and then he became exalted: “What the hell else has to happen to us in Córdoba for the Government to realize that we are having a hell of a time there? What else has to happen in my province for political leaders to realize that there are people who lost everything?” “We are not even talking about money, but it establishes a mechanism that is normal in democracy,” he clarified.
Finally, the count had 55 affirmative votes and 3 abstentionscoming from his own Ezequiel Atauche with Vilma Bedia and Bruno Olivera Luceroall of Freedom Advances.
