This will not be just another week for the government of Javier Milei. Starting this Wednesday, with Manuel Adorni in the spotlight, the ruling coalition will attempt to regain control of the public agenda, which has been overshadowed by successive scandals involving the Chief of Staff. This initiative aims to reform the regulation that was originally passed by Congress in mid-2024, vetoed by Javier Milei, and then reinstated by the Legislature following massive federal marches. Officials at Balcarce 50 indicate they intend to have the initiative discussed this month, no matter what. These will be key days to finally see if the Milei administration can navigate the wave of problems that arose at the beginning of the month or, ultimately, must dispense with the press secretary who has become the coordinating minister. Although teacher unions, like Feduba led by Pablo Perazzi, have already taken a stand against the parliamentary proposal and promise resistance on the streets. The 'Leaf Fall' law, a project to repeal legislation and 'liberate' the economy, could also enter the discussion. To this will be added a large number of meetings with ministers. All amidst criticism and even public calls from a libertarian figure like Nicolás Márquez for the coordinating minister to step aside and end speculation. It is clear that in La Libertad Avanza (LLA), they seek to avoid prolonging and intensifying the conflict with the university community over this text. There are bodies like the National Institute of Industrial Technology (INTI) that have opened a voluntary retirement process for their staff. The list could continue with Senasa, Customs, and the National Institute of Agricultural Technology (INTA), in addition to various state directorates not renewing public employee contracts expiring at the end of the month. To this strategic mix is added an Adorni who will try to lead part of the official communication. The promotion of the initiative is in the hands of his mentor, Federico Sturzenegger, the Minister of Deregulation and State Transformation, who spends the most time debureaucratizing the state. In relation to the latter point, Sturzenegger has for weeks been looking for ways to continue reducing state personnel in various areas. He will kick things off this Wednesday with a press conference reported by this medium.
