Peronist PJ Convenes National Council to Set Unified Strategy on Milei’s Reforms

Governor-level outreach by the Milei administration tests Peronist discipline as provincial leaders weigh separate blocs.

Overview

  • The PJ gathers today at its Matheu 130 headquarters for a National Council session with party secretariats and invited guests to coordinate positions on the 2026 Budget and labor and tax changes.
  • The CGT holds a separate meeting with union-aligned deputies to debate a response to the government’s proposed labor reform.
  • A follow-up meeting with PJ senators led by José Mayans is scheduled for Wednesday to shape the bloc’s approach in the upper chamber.
  • Interior Minister Diego Santilli has been meeting governors to lock in support for the 2026 Budget and reform agenda, while Peronist governors Axel Kicillof, Ricardo Quintela, Gildo Insfrán and Gustavo Melella were left out of recent talks.
  • Catamarca governor Raúl Jalil is evaluating a new deputies’ bloc or a provincial interbloc arrangement, a possibility that could complicate the PJ’s push for unity in Congress.
