Overview

  • President Javier Milei confirmed extraordinary congressional sessions for December 10–31 with the 2026 Budget and labor, tax and Penal Code overhauls on the agenda.
  • Manuel Adorni was sworn in as chief of Cabinet, while Diego Santilli was designated interior minister and began acting in that role ahead of a formal oath.
  • Santilli starts bilateral meetings in the Casa Rosada with governors Ignacio ‘Nacho’ Torres (Chubut) and Raúl Jalil (Catamarca) on Friday, with Martín Llaryora (Córdoba), Gustavo Sáenz (Salta) and Marcelo Orrego (San Juan) expected Monday to negotiate support for the Budget and reforms.
  • The Presidency said talks on Supreme Court and federal court vacancies will wait until March 2026, keeping the December sessions focused on fiscal and structural legislation.
  • Milei rallied roughly 100–130 allied lawmakers at the Casa Rosada to coordinate messaging, as reports indicate the reform texts could be presented around November 15, with the Penal Code draft most advanced and championed by Patricia Bullrich.
