Following a labor reform backed by Javier Milei, which received partial approval in the Chamber of Deputies with 135 votes in favor and 115 against, Argentinian television host Verónica Lozano expressed her outrage. During a general strike organized by the CGT in response to the reform, Lozano criticized the proposal, specifically highlighting a clause that would allow a deduction of 50% from the salaries of employees who were unable to work due to disease or other significant reasons.

Lozano's comments reflect a broader concern among workers and social activists about the government’s approach to labor rights and welfare. She warned that the reform, if fully enacted, would indicate a lack of empathy from lawmakers towards the struggles of everyday workers, especially those facing serious health issues. The discussion has sparked intense debate across the nation, particularly in light of the push from the government to limit workers' rights under the guise of economic reform.

Her strong statements included a condemnation of a specific article from the reform (Article 44), which discussed reducing leave benefits for workers suffering from accidents or illnesses—a provision that has since been proposed for removal. This public outburst signals a rising tension between the labor movement and the current government, hinting at potential unrest if the planned reforms are fully implemented.
