In the midst of the anger that caused the ruling party to enable the possibility for civil and business organizations to present information regarding the impact of the Omnibus Law, but with a limit of seven minutes per speaker, the blocks of the dialogue opposition entered into a process fed up regarding the positioning of La Libertad Avanza when discussing the project.

The radical deputy insisted on the idea that these types of statements threaten the possibility of forming consensus. “If the change that she wants to lead is fear, fear and extortion, it is not because where we can guarantee parliamentary support,” he said.
Minutes earlier, the head of the Unión por la Patria bloc, Germán Martínez, had done so, reading statements made by the head of state in a radio interview where he indicated that those who wanted to modify the law were negotiating and succumbing to the lobby of those interests. spurious.

“Such an attitude attitude is absolutely unacceptable and unfair, every time Congress is working to give the Government urgent legal tools to be able to face the crisis that Argentina is going through,” they added.
Radicalism and HCF once again tell the ruling party that they are willing to give them tools, but that patience has limits. “It is difficult, while we work to give something to the ruling party so that it does not lose everything - DNU and Omnibus Law - they tell us atrocities, they throw us at the people against and they treat us like squirts. "It's incredible," a source in charge of trying to carry out these negotiations explained to Infobae. “The entire treatment in committee has been arrogant. It is a lack of respect that they invite speakers and give them only 5 minutes and on top of that they cut off their microphone if they do not comply.”
In the midst of this, La Libertad Avanza - which observes how each day of debate loses one more chapter of the mega law - seeks to speed up the process and rule this week. “They have the idea of ruling on Thursday and going to the premises on Saturday. They do not have the number, it is not understood what they want do,” he added.
The problem that the dialogue blocks encounter is that they cannot achieve their own opinion and thus advance. They understand that UxP could make an opinion with a single article that says “reject the law” and LLA present another with the entire project. “If that happens, the ruling party will have a minority opinion.”
The block commanded by Miguel Ángel Pichetto
On the side of the PRO, UCR and HCF blocks, the intention to advance their own opinion was ruled out mainly because in the issues related to the fiscal package, such as tax, it was very complex for them to estimate numbers without having an exchange with the AFIP.
At the close of the day this Monday, the Left Front deputy Myriam Bregman asked the president of the plenary session, Gabriel Bornoroni, to tell them the schedule they are thinking of carrying out. “They ask us all the time if a ruling is made on Friday and a session is held on Saturday, we don't know anything, we would appreciate it if you could share the schedule,” he said. the legislator. Bornoroni (LLA) decided to avoid the request.
This Tuesday the private sectors and civil society return to speak and the plenary session of deputies is preparing to rule this week.
