Overview

• The Senate voted 63–7 to overturn the veto after an earlier lower‑house vote, enacting the disability emergency law.
• The law increases support for care providers and slightly raises the noncontributory minimum pension for people with disabilities after Milei vetoed it over funding concerns.
• Prosecutors have opened a corruption probe after leaked audio alleged kickbacks on state medicine purchases, raiding supplier Suizo Argentina and seizing documents, computers and phones.
• Investigators noted a sharp rise in the company’s government contracts and, according to local reports, detained an owner carrying cash while attempting to flee.
• Milei denies the allegations as disinformation, but protests have grown, his approval fell in recent polls, and Sunday’s Buenos Aires provincial vote and the October midterms now loom as key tests.
