Work is a fundamental issue to unlock the energy and talent that Argentines have, the former leader wrote on X. In line with this, he continued: "What happened today is just a step: we must continue to work hard to promote new reforms that transform labor legislation into a much more modern regulation, that gives a future to all young people and that adapts to this unparalleled era." The upper chamber, in the early hours of this Thursday, approved the initiative that seeks to modernize the labor market with 42 affirmative votes, 30 negative votes, with no abstentions. "After years in which we fought for profound changes in labor laws, today's vote managed to take a step in the right direction."
