Javier Milei's government's reform megaproject is moving forward in Congress.

The so-called "Omnibus Law" was cleared by a lawmakers panel and will be debated in the Lower House.

The proposal was endorsed by the so-called "pro-dialogue opposition" after changes introduced by the Casa Rosada, such as keeping oil company YPF under state control.

However, local media report that this support is "conditional" and that congress people of Juntos por el Cambio, UCR and other forces will vote article by article.

Presidential spokesman Manuel Adorni warned yesterday that if the law is not approved, the adjustment "will be greater for everyone".

And he detailed that in this case the Executive Branch could severely cut budget allocations for the provinces.

The full name of the bill is "Law of Bases and Starting Points for the Freedom of the Argentines” and consists of more than 600 articles.

The proposal is rejected by the Peronism grouped in the Unión por la Patria party and by the CGT and CTA labor federations, which called a 12-hour strike for today.

The protest includes a march to the Parliament, in Buenos Aires.

In addition to trade unions, social, political, university, feminist and human rights organizations will participate in the rally against the Omnibus Law.

They are also demonstrating against a Milei decree which repeals dozens of laws.

Meanwhile, several sectors expressed their opposition to the strike and criticized unions for marching against a government that has been in power for only 45 days.

In this sense, the Construction Chamber, for example, questioned the CGT for not going on strike during the four years of the administration of former President Alberto Fernández.
