Argentine legislative reform proposals

Overview

Argentine legislators have introduced multiple proposals within the Chamber of Deputies focused on legal and parliamentary reforms.

One initiative, proposed by Mercedes Llano of La Libertad Avanza, seeks to establish economic sanctions for lawmakers who utilize aggressive language, insults, or vulgarities during sessions. This resolution suggests salary suspensions ranging from one to two months for verbal offenses or physical aggression, while maintaining protections for political criticism and ideological debate.

Concurrently, Virginia Gallardo of La Libertad Avanza has presented a bill to reform the national Penal Code. This proposal aims to make crimes punishable by life imprisonment imprescriptible, ensuring prosecution is not barred by the passage of time. The reform also seeks to increase statutes of limitations for various crimes and strengthen penalties regarding sexual abuse offenses.
