Following its significant victory in the Senate, where it secured majority approval for labor modernization, the Argentine government aims to be the first to reform a historically untouchable law of Peronism in record time—under a month. The focus is shifting to the Chamber of Deputies, where libertarian lawmakers plan to streamline the approval process for the Senate's labor reform bill by scheduling a committee meeting to finalize the report next Wednesday, hoping to convert it into law the following week.

However, the government will encounter strong resistance from a section of the opposition, which, while generally supportive of the reform, is concerned about specific contentious aspects. Key issues, particularly those related to licenses for illness and accidents, compensation funds, and the repeal of professional statutes, have emerged as points of conflict. These contentious proposals are causing delays as various groups voice their concerns and suggest amendments.

The outcome of this legislative push not only reflects the ruling party's commitment to modernizing labor laws but also highlights the underlying tensions within the political landscape of Argentina. The proposed changes could have significant implications for workers' rights and labor relations in the country, indicating a pivotal moment in Argentina's economic and social policy direction.
