Opposition Sets Wednesday Deputies Session to Rein In DNUs and Challenge Milei’s Inner Circle

Procedural hurdles loom because many proposals need supermajorities.

Overview

  • Opposition blocs formally asked Speaker Martín Menem to convene a special Chamber of Deputies session for Wednesday at 12:00 with a broad agenda aimed at the government.
  • Top item is a Senate‑approved overhaul of emergency decrees that ends the automatic validity rule and would require explicit ratification by both chambers within 90 days for any DNU to remain in force.
  • Lawmakers will push to remove José Luis Espert as chair of the Budget and Finance Commission, a move tied to a judicial probe into alleged illicit campaign financing, which without a committee report would require two‑thirds support.
  • The agenda includes starting a censure process against Chief of Cabinet Guillermo Francos over the unimplemented Disability Emergency law and scheduling interpellations for Karina Milei and Health Minister Mario Lugones on alleged corruption at ANDIS, both already cleared by committees.
  • Deputies also plan to seek explanations from Economy Minister Luis Caputo on talks with the United States, set November 20 as the target date for the 2026 budget committee report, and advance the selection of a children’s rights ombudsman.
