Argentina’s Senate voted early Thursday morning in favor of granting the government “superpowers” over budgetary allocation. The bill proposed by the government allows permanently the executive to reallocate part of the budget without Congressional approval and is necessary, says President Nestor Kirchner, to allow him to govern effectively. In the past, budgetary flexibility was approved on a year-by-year basis. The legislation must now be debated by the lower house. Critics of the president and the government’s proposed legislation say that the move is anti-Constitutional and an attack against the rule of law.
