Milei Turns Post-Defeat Clash Into Budget Drive as Governors Rally to Overturn Vetoes

Governors are organizing votes to reverse the vetoes, signaling a harder path for the presidency in Congress.

Overview

  • After Buenos Aires’ setback, the president vetoed the pediatric emergency law, university funding and the ATN revenue distribution, reaffirming a deficit-zero stance.
  • Casa Rosada plans a Monday night national address to present the 2026 budget, with revised macro assumptions and no new tax reform, and officials expect debate to start after the December 10 congressional turnover.
  • Provincias Unidas governors rejected a photo-op dialogue, said they will work to overturn the vetoes, and only a handful of allied governors attended the Interior Ministry’s new “Mesa Federal.”
  • Opposition blocs in both chambers are moving to bring veto rejections to the floor as unions and sector groups prepare street mobilizations; separately, Congress formally summoned Karina Milei in the $LIBRA inquiry and new testimony advanced the case.
  • Milei is preparing a New York trip that includes the UN General Assembly and an Atlantic Council award event, with planned interactions with U.S. and IMF figures; in sports, Spain’s CTA admitted early-season VAR errors and Argentina took a 2–0 Davis Cup lead over the Netherlands in Groningen.
