Overview
- The Permanent Commission placed the case at the top of its Dec. 29 agenda in a session to be led by Congressman Fernando Rospigliosi.
- The report was approved on June 20 by the Subcommittee on Constitutional Accusations in a 12–3 vote citing a presumed breach of Article 45 and possible incompatible negotiation under Penal Code Article 399.
- The complaint by former lawmakers César Gonzáles and Manuel Merino alleges last-minute pay increases, personnel designations near the end of her term, and lapses in COVID-19 safety procedures.
- Vásquez says she learned of the session via social media, claims she was not formally notified, and denounces political persecution as she seeks a Senate seat with Ahora Nación.
- If endorsed, the sanction would bar her from holding public office for ten years, with the commission’s decision determining whether the case advances or is archived.
