Political actors in Argentina are working to consolidate alliances between the administration of Javier Milei, the PRO party, and regional leaders. In late July, representatives from La Libertad Avanza and the PRO party convened a forum in the Buenos Aires City Legislature to promote a conservative agenda. The event focused on increasing birth rates and advocated for the repeal of the Voluntary Interruption of Pregnancy law and restrictions on the Comprehensive Sexual Education (ESI) program. By late August, the government expanded these efforts through high-level meetings at Casa Rosada. The administration met with PRO leadership to unify criteria for structural reforms and coordinate an electoral strategy for 2027. Additionally, the government engaged with governors from the Centro Region—specifically from Santa Fe, Córdoba, and Entre Ríos—to discuss infrastructure, energy subsidies, and the delegation of national corridor maintenance to provincial jurisdictions. On August 27, 2026, Chief of Cabinet Diego Santilli met with the governors of the Centro Region—Martín Llaryora (Córdoba), Maximiliano Pullaro (Santa Fe), and Rogelio Frigerio (Entre Ríos)—at Casa Rosada to coordinate a joint agenda. Discussions centered on infrastructure and energy. Regarding infrastructure, leaders addressed the management of national routes used for transporting agricultural harvests to export ports, with the national government exploring schemes to delegate certain road segments to provincial jurisdictions. In the energy sector, the meeting covered electricity tariffs for large industrial users and the ‘Zona Fría’ (Cold Zone) subsidy regime under Senate debate. The governors also requested to receive a percentage of the fuel tax. The government is also exploring debt refinancing schemes for large electricity consumers to alleviate industrial financial pressure, a move viewed as a way to secure legislative support for the administration’s broader reform agenda. Officials denied that the meeting involved discussions on electoral reform.
