Milei's veto of college funding bill survives Congressional challenge

0

Despite lacking a majority of its own, Argentina's ruling La Libertad Avanza (LLA) Wednesday succeeded at the Lower House in keeping enforceable President Javier Milei's veto from last week against the newly approved university funding bill by garnering a total of 84 votes with help from occasional allies such as a few rogue UCR lawmakers, thus rendering the opposition's 164 votes insufficient after key abstentions to override the presidential decision.
