Overview
- The financing law cleared both chambers with the required two‑thirds majority after an overnight session, with support from blocs including PRO and UCR.
- The package authorizes up to roughly US$3.685 billion and, according to Kicillof, secures debt payments and year‑end salaries for provincial employees.
- Lawmakers also expanded Banco Provincia’s governance, creating new director and associated‑director posts that were assigned to figures from the ruling coalition and opposition, including Sergio Bordoni, PRO’s Matías Ranzini and Adrián Urreli, and UCR allies.
- Negotiations yielded a municipal fund of about 350,000 million pesos to be paid in three installments and a bicameral commission to oversee the provincial debt.
- The session turned tense when San Nicolás mayor Santiago Passaglia tried to retake his deputy seat to vote against the bill, as critics from La Libertad Avanza denounced the agreement as a trade of public posts for votes while the governor blamed President Milei for the fiscal strain.
