Argentina Congress Opens with Milei's Reforms on Agenda
Argentina's new Congress is starting special meetings to discuss important changes proposed by President Javier Milei.
These changes include new rules for taxes, work, and punishments for crimes.
The president's party, La Libertad Avanza, won more seats in the recent elections, which might help them get these changes approved.
However, the opposition, especially the unions, are not happy about the proposed work changes.
The new budget is expected to be approved soon, and the work changes will be discussed but not approved until 2026.
The tax changes will be presented to Congress early next year.
Argentina's Congress begins special sessions to approve President Milei's economic reforms.
Reforms include tax, labor, and criminal code changes to boost the economy.
La Libertad Avanza, Milei's party, gained more seats, improving chances for reform approval.
Unions strongly oppose labor reforms that would give employers more flexibility.
The new budget is expected to be approved in December, with labor reforms discussed but not approved until 2026.
