"It's a crucial month and a half, with a lot of work. If things go our way, we could wrap things up then," an official source told Infobae about the legislative roadmap the Government has designed for the next 45 days, ahead of a new election year. With that goal in mind, the political table drew up a tentative schedule with the intention of passing the National Sovereignty Defense Law, the 2027 Budget, and the electoral reform.
In parallel, there are other important bills that have already received half-sanction, such as the Inviolability of Private Property Law, the changes to the Cold Zones regime, and the amendments to the Central Bank Charter. That agenda also includes the 'superior' Disability legislation and the bill on arrears and household debt, which are still pending.
"Months of important decisions are coming. Starting with the arrival of Leo XIV onward. With the campaign activated, everything becomes more complicated," an official told this outlet about the dynamic the Government seems to want to adopt.
In the ruling party, they believe that during this period, the Casa Rosada will face its main challenges not only in legislative matters but also because of Pope Leo XIV's visit.

The Speaker of the Chamber of Deputies, Martín Menem, in the middle of a session: "It's a crucial month and a half, with a lot of work. If things go our way, we could wrap things up there," an official source told Infobae regarding the legislative roadmap designed by the Government for the next 45 days, ahead of a new electoral year. With that goal in mind, the political leadership drafted a tentative schedule with the intention of passing the National Sovereignty Defense Law, the 2027 Budget, and the electoral reform. In parallel, other important bills that already have partial approval are on the list, such as the Inviolability of Private Property Law, the changes to the Cold Zones regime, and the amendments to the Central Bank Charter. Added to that agenda are the 'superior' Disability law and the one on arrears and household debt, which are still pending. "Months of important decisions are coming. From the arrival of Leo XIV onward. With the campaign activated, everything becomes more complicated," a government official told this outlet about the dynamic the Government seems to want to adopt. In the ruling party, they believe that during this period, the Casa Rosada will face its main challenges not only in legislative matters but also due to the visit of Pope Leo XIV. Faced with that scenario, the political leadership is trying to organize the timeline, aware of the added complexity in 2027, when the allies' electoral plans will kick in. The political leadership gathered at the Casa RosadaDuring the last meeting, members of the small circle analyzed the possibility of advancing the National Sovereignty Defense Law during the first week of October in the Chamber of Deputies. The agenda could also include the consideration of the disability and arrears bills, whose texts were agreed upon with the allies. Likewise, for the second week of the coming month, the idea is to open consideration of the 2027 Budget in committees. As a result of the controversy opened by the inclusion of disability cuts, the Executive decided to accommodate external and internal complaints and is moving toward excluding the cut in order to protect the "law of laws." Although the plans may be adjusted, the preliminary intention is to move forward first with the bills that have the greatest support and then tackle the more complex ones. With a still complicated scenario, the libertarian administration is working intensively to gather the votes needed to pass the electoral reform, one of the keys to advancing toward Javier Milei's reelection. Although the allies are reluctant to eliminate the open, simultaneous, and mandatory primary elections (PASO), at Balcarce 50 they are pinning their hopes on the trip to Paris, on the occasion of Argentina Week, in which 13 like-minded governors will participate. Deputy Diego Santilli greets people as he enters the Casa Rosada to attend a cabinet meeting with officials of the Argentine governmentWith that purpose, the Chief of Staff, Diego Santilli, traveled to Paris, where he will hold a series of meetings with provincial governors to gather votes. The calculation is to close the agreements to avoid "bold moves" by allies seeking to improve their conditions "before sitting down to negotiate." However, the political wing's plan was threatened by the Supreme Court's ruling rejecting a lawsuit that sought to annul the repeal of the Rural Land Law, a measure enacted by the Executive through article 154 of Decree of Necessity and Urgency 70/2023. As this outlet reported, the ruling party is weighing the possibility of reviving the discussion on the Land Law within the framework of the debate on the Inviolability of Private Property, with the aim of protecting DNU 70/2023, promoted by the Minister of Deregulation and State Transformation, Federico Sturzenegger. "The idea is to concede on some aspects of Inviolability, but guarantee support for Decree 70/2023, which is a governance tool. The allies won't want to get involved in that," an official source told this outlet.
