Francos received Cornejo at the Casa Rosada and promised to send a draft project before the weekend
The governor of Mendoza, Alfredo Cornejo, announced that Javier Milei 's main political official informed him this morning that the Government will send a draft of the reverted Omnibus law to all the leaders and the congressional blocks before the weekend, so which could soon clear up doubts about the fine print, especially around the floor and the Earnings categories - which would be called “high personal income” -; the new pension formula; and the inclusion of the labor reform that is part of the DNU of deregulation but is stopped by Justice.
“I understand that there will be a draft tomorrow, or the day after, and that they will send it to the 24 governors, the deputies and the senators. A draft tomorrow or the day after, that's what the minister told me. For now there are no details on this," the radical president said this afternoon to accredited journalists in the soaked Patio de las Palmeras of the Casa Rosada, upon leaving his meeting with Francos that had taken place between 10 and 11 p.m. tomorrow. Cornejo had not been able to attend the meeting with his peers due to scheduling issues, and today he went to the minister's office to get in touch.
Cornejo could not provide details about the new version of the Bases law, he said, because Francos was not in a position to grant them to him. But he confirmed that he is willing to accompany the ruling party in the new stage of the legislative adventure, which also includes the treatment of a fiscal relief package and the controversial DNU of deregulation. “We reviewed the issues, but there are no details because the Minister of the Interior still does not have the bill that he is going to send to Congress or on the May 25 Pact apart from the points that they already announced,” he said. The draft would be known, then, a week after the meeting of Posse and Francos with all the governors that took place last Friday.
Cornejo was especially in favor of reincorporating the fourth category of the Income Tax, unlike the Patagonian governors, whom he said “understand” while still showing his disagreement. “Most of the provinces believe that it should be restored. It is progressive, not one of those that taxes consumption or economic activity, and most countries in the world have it.”
The draft project would be known within a week of the meeting with the governors led by Posse together with Francos.
The president of the UCR confirmed his support even though he does not yet know the floors and categories that will remain in force in the Executive project, which is being prepared by Minister Luis Caputo and which was going to be discussed, as agreed last Friday, among the treasury secretaries of the provinces and the national one, Carlos Guberman. The meetings between these technical officials have not yet taken place or been scheduled.
The push for labor reform is one of the main unknowns about the ruling party's agenda. Strong versions circulated last week that Milei was considering including it in the bill to give it greater legitimacy, to comply with the IMF's request to seek “consensus” with the rest of the political arc and ensure that it moves forward after the brakes it placed on it. the Chamber of Labor based on the measures presented by the CGT unions.
Last week, in the document it delivered to the governors, the Government had incorporated a specific point on the laundering of informal workers, but without further clarifications. At the Casa Rosada they have not yet reported whether they will copy the complete DNU reform to add it to the Bases law, or it will be a less ambitious section.

“The Minister did not say if he was going to add the labor reform to the law, nor did we discuss it. But the employment relationship must also go through Congress. If we want to grow sustainably, it is not achieved only with fiscal balance, but we must also make reforms that are approved in Congress,” stated the position of the governor, who had expressed himself in a similar sense at the AmCham summit yesterday. However, he said that he is willing to help the Government keep the DNU in force that the most distant opponents of the left and Kirchnerism are trying to overturn.
The positions are divided in the UCR. Cornejo is aligned with the head of the radical party, Rodrigo De Loredo from Córdoba, and on the opposite side are Martín Lousteau and Facundo Manes, very critical of the national government, who have already announced that they will not accompany the crusade for Milei's decree, which he considers unconstitutional.
In parallel to the meeting of Francos and Cornejo, the position of support for libertarians among the coreligionists won the fight, when they fell for the special session that Miguel Pichetto had requested with the support of Kirchnerism, the CC of Elisa Carrió and the radical critics of LLA to discuss an alternative pension reform project. It was a triumph for the wing of the Mendoza governor, who wants to give Milei tools to govern and is increasingly distant from the sector led by Lousteau.
