Patricia Bullrich clashes with Argentine government over Senate sessions
After a chaotic vote that approved 74 judicial bills, tension rose between President Javier Milei’s administration and Senate libertarian leader Patricia Bullrich. Government officials accuse Bullrich of acting without consulting the executive, postponing discussion of the Private Property Inviolability Law and attempting to delay the María Verónica Michelli bill, which has family ties to journalist Hugo Alconada Mon. Bullrich responded with a viral video and is set to attend another political meeting at Casa Rosada.
The dispute also involves cabinet chief Manuel Adorni, who has not yet presented his required management report to the Senate, prompting a formal request from Peronist senators. The Constitution mandates monthly reports, and the delay adds pressure on the Milei government. Bullrich’s position remains pivotal for the libertarian bloc and the upcoming 2027 elections, but the growing friction highlights internal challenges for the administration.
