Provincias Unidas Sets Budget Demands at Jujuy Summit, Eyes Post‑Election Bloc

The governors set fiscal conditions for any 2026 budget vote, signaling a post‑election push to form a congressional bloc.

Overview

  • Hosted by Jujuy’s Carlos Sadir, governors from Córdoba, Santa Fe, Chubut and Corrientes met in San Salvador de Jujuy for their third joint summit, joined by Juan Schiaretti.
  • Leaders vowed not to approve the 2026 national budget a libro cerrado and demanded fairer distribution of ATN and fuel‑tax revenues, plus the resumption of public works and road maintenance.
  • The delegation toured the Parque Solar Cauchari–El Pongo and met mining and industry executives to underscore a production‑driven, regional development agenda.
  • Schiaretti said the space will present an option to govern in 2027 as the bloc positioned itself as a centrist, federal alternative to La Libertad Avanza and the kirchnerismo.
  • A follow‑up meeting is set for October 15 in Buenos Aires, and internal sources say outreach is underway to assemble a post‑election congressional bloc targeting roughly 25 deputies.
