Argentine Pensioners Demand Raise and Repeal of Labor Laws

Pensioners will once again protest in front of the National Congress on the first Wednesday of April, demanding an 'emergency increase' in pensions, free medication, and free medical treatments. According to the Argentine News Agency, various groups representing pensioners and self-organized individuals will also demand the repeal of the Labor Law and the FAL, a guarantee fund that 'will be paid with money from Anses.' They also stated that the alleged call for Federal Police families to demand a salary increase and prompt attention to their social welfare at the same time and place is 'an insult and a provocation': 'They want a raise to repress us better.'
