The governor is expected to highlight the salary increase for state employees and teachers and launch harsh criticism of the President in a new chapter of the dispute over the Province's funds.
Axel Kicillof called a press conference for this Monday morning (Aglaplata)
The fight between the Nation and the Province of Buenos Aires over the withdrawal of funds intensified in the last hours after Javier Milei endorsed the call for tax rebellion made by José Luis Espert against Axel Kicillof . The governor will rehearse this Monday a response against the president and the deputy of La Libertad Avanza
The provincial leader called a press conference for today at 8:30 in the Golden Room of the Government House. It is presumed that Kicillof's announcement would have to do with the 13.5% increase that he provided for teachers and state employees in line with inflation.
The joint negotiation between the provincial government, the public administration unions and the teachers was completed last Friday. An increase was offered on the edge of inflation for the month of February: 13.5% to be collected in March. The consumer price index released last week by INDEC showed an inflation of 13.2% , with a cumulative inflation of 276% in recent months.
In this context, the governor is expected to harshly criticize the economic context, blaming Milei and the Minister of Economy, Luis Caputo. Emphasizing that despite the funding cuts and the adjustment ordered by the Nation, the provincial government faces reality with salary increases that match inflation.
It will be a favorable scenario for Kicillof to confront the president and Espert after the libertarians' call not to pay the taxes ordered by the Province.
On Saturday, the recently incorporated deputy of La Libertad Avanza urged the people of Buenos Aires to "fiscal rebellion", after the sharp increases in patents, the Real Estate Tax and the Rural Real Estate ordered by the governor.
“The increase in patents , the increase in residential real estate and the increase in rural real estate do not have to be paid for. You don't have to pay it. And that is not tax rebellion to the fart, it is tax rebellion with common sense. “The people of Buenos Aires do not have to pay the tax increase,” he assured.

Milei on the tax increase in the province of Buenos Aires: "It is expropriatory"
“Just as workers who do not feel represented by the salaries they earn go on strike, and the poor block the streets, it is the only defense that taxpayers have when politicians do not give us something in return for the taxes we pay. And we saw La Matanza flooded, a dead man floating happily in Lanús, everything flooded in the suburbs . We don't have to pay the taxes that Kicillof now wants, because it doesn't give us anything. I'm not going to pay them. Neither real estate nor rural, because I am also a rural product,” he stressed.
The Tax Tax Law 2024, voted in December in the Buenos Aires Legislature with the support of the PRO, the Civic Coalition, part of the UCR and even a sector of the libertarians, applied an increase in taxes on real estate, built urban assets and rural land , varying between 140% and 200%. In addition, at the beginning of this year, ARBA Regulatory Resolution 11/24 charged companies an additional advance payment of the Gross Income Tax to collect 155,000 million pesos , an amount equivalent to four times the amount of the October 2023 advance payment.
Espert's statement had the support of the president, who this Sunday assured that he was “totally in agreement” with the call for tax rebellion. In the same line of reasoning, he said that the increases ordered by Kicillof are “confiscatory,” and he said that the compensation is not seen.
“ It is expropriatory, it has no counterpart in public goods. Kicillof gives nothing , in terms of security, the province is a bloodbath; In education, student achievement is truly very poor; In health, we already saw the scam of the State present during the pandemic, in which, if we had done things like a mediocre country we would have had 30 thousand deaths, and we had 130 thousand," assured the national leader.
