Overview

• On July 10, senators from Peronist, Radical and provincial blocs approved a 7.2% pension increase, extended the moratorium through 2027 and declared an emergency in disability services
• President Javier Milei announced plans to veto the measures and impugn them in court, citing the session’s procedural legitimacy as flawed
• Vice President Victoria Villarruel and Casa Rosada officials argue the Senate convened without a valid commission report or official summons
• The chamber also green-lit automatic redistribution of Aportes del Tesoro Nacional transfers and fuel-tax revenues to provinces
• Disability advocacy groups have sustained municipal vigils and protests to press for swift implementation of the emergency declaration
