In order to approve the project that cuts funds to the City, the ruling party had to negotiate several changes to the law.
These modifications
were agreed with the deputies of Federal Córdoba,
who report to Governor
Juan Schiaretti.
The Frente de Todos needed that support to advance with the withdrawal of funds.
The project was approved fairly: 129 positive votes, 118 negative and 7 abstentions.
The Front of All had the support of the Federal Unit for Development interblock;
Alma Sapag from Neuquén and deputy Felipe Álvarez, from Acción Federal, former member of Juntos por el Cambio.
There was strong criticism of Álvarez because he was also the one who enabled the quorum and until a few weeks ago he was part of the opposition.
The project to cut funds was also accompanied by Andrés Zottos from Salta, from the Federal Interblock and the four Peronist deputies who respond to Governor Schiaretti.
Without the changes, at least two of them would not have voted with the Frente de Todos.
The deputies Luis Contigiani (Civic and Social Progressive Front);
Enrique Estévez (Socialist), Graciela Camano, Jorge Sarghini and Alejandro "Topo" Rodríguez, from Lavagnismo, abstained: so did the left-wing deputies Romina Del Plá and Nicolás del Caño.
The president of the Constitutional Affairs Commission, Pablo González, was in charge of
anticipating that modifications would be included in the text at 3 in the morning
when the formal debate on the law that takes funds from the City began.
He did so after the
strong negotiations that until that moment they had faced with the Schiaretti deputies.
Changes in the initiative
"The modifications substantially change the half sanction of the Senate," González warned in a sign that they were seeking to remove the bill.
The proposal that was finally left was negotiated with the people of Cordoba.
It stipulates that the Nation and the City open a 60-day negotiation instance to advance an agreement that
defines the amount of the annual transfer
to pay for the transfer of the police to the Capital.
In fact
, the figure of 24,500 million per year
established by the original initiative
is eliminated from the project
, which can be updated with an index composed of 80% by the nominal index of the average salary of the Federal Police and 20% by the price index at the same time. consumer (CPI), corresponding to the previous year
It also encourages the Federal Tax Commission (CFI)
to
intervene in the negotiation
to issue a technical opinion on the amount to be transferred.
In addition, the deputy explained that it
was included in the project
that until the agreement is signed, the twelfth part of $ 24,500 million will be automatically transferred to the City on account of the sum that is later defined in that negotiation.
With these modifications they achieved the support of the people of Cordoba.
But the unrest in the City was remarkable.
Especially because they considered Schiaretti as a political ally.
In the Buenos Aires government they recalled that he was the only Peronist governor who did not sign the request that his colleagues signed in favor of the withdrawal of resources from the City.
The deputy of Together for Change Cristian Ritondo marked the pulse of anger with the Cordovan in the middle of the session.
He denounced that they voted in favor of the project as part of a political agreement with Alberto Fernández.
