Overview

• The majority report replicating the Senate text garnered 35 signatures in a joint meeting of the Constitutional Affairs and the Petitions, Powers and Regulations committees, leaving the bill ready for floor debate as early as October 8.
• The reform would require both chambers to ratify a decree within 90 days or it lapses, and a rejection by either chamber would annul a DNU, reversing the current default validity.
• La Libertad Avanza filed a rejecting minority report, the Coalición Cívica presented an alternative without the 90‑day deadline, and PRO and UCR withheld signatures pending the floor debate.
• Senators passed the project earlier in September by 56–8 with two abstentions, and opponents anticipate a presidential veto that would require two‑thirds in each chamber to override.
• The push follows heavy DNU use under President Javier Milei, with reports citing more than 70 decrees in under two years, and the bill also restricts DNUs to a single subject and blocks reissuing one on the same matter in the same parliamentary year.
