In the midst of the fight with the governors, senators from the federal bloc ask for a special session to discuss the DNU. The request was signed by senators from radicalism, dissident Peronism and provincial parties.

Most of the signatories belong to Patagonian provinces, with the exception of two missionaries and the three Peronists. On the other hand, Andrea Cristina (PRO) and Edith Terenzi (UCR) from Chubut were not in the game.
