Overview
- Chief of Cabinet Manuel Adorni convened the first 2026 political summit at the Casa Rosada to lock in a vote strategy for the labor overhaul.
- Economy Minister Luis Caputo joined to define the fiscal room for maneuver as governors object to corporate income tax cuts that would trim shared revenues.
- Negotiations exposed internal differences, with Santilli, Bullrich and Martín Menem open to limited concessions and Caputo and Federico Sturzenegger pushing back.
- The government is aiming for extraordinary Senate sessions around February 10–11 and is still short by roughly a dozen votes.
- Patricia Bullrich is organizing a Senate consultative group through late January to polish the bill, while outreach to governors intensifies and other bills may be deferred to keep focus on the labor measure.
