Overview
- The Economy Ministry authorized a 20 billion-peso Aportes del Tesoro de la Nación transfer to Tucumán, the largest single disbursement of Milei’s tenure.
- The move followed a deliberate November pause in ATN distributions, which analysts said signaled use of the funds in post‑election negotiations with governors.
- Reports link Tucumán’s allocation to Governor Osvaldo Jaldo’s influence in Congress through three deputies and one senator aligned with the Casa Rosada.
- Official data show ATN execution at 131.5 billion pesos from January to November, just 15.3% of the 860.115 billion-peso 2025 envelope, leaving 728.615 billion pesos unspent.
- After the transfer, Jaldo met Interior officials to seek offsets for national debts to the province and said the funds were requested under a hydric emergency for prevention and maintenance works.
