You denounce an abuse of power by the Executive, a violation of the “collective right of Argentine citizens to participate in the management of public affairs” and ask for the nullity of the Emergency Necessity Decree (DNU), which has annulled more than 300 laws .

Milei’s “decree” annulled 366 laws, including those regulating the sectors of supply and price control. Furthermore, the decree creates new norms for labor legislation, transforms state-owned companies into joint-stock companies, to facilitate the process of privatization of these institutions, among others.

The announcement was met with protests in the streets of Buenos Aires and protests in several cities in Argentina. The measure took effect automatically, but still must pass through a congressional commission, which has the power to maintain or reject the decree.
