The Human Capital Ministry announced that the Army would distribute 5,000 tonnes of food sitting in government warehouses, a week after announcing it would not deliver them to soup kitchens. A story by the El Destape news website revealed the 5,000 tonnes of food and warned that some of the food was close to its expiration date. Since it took office, the government has not been delivering food to most soup kitchens. Social movements that oppose Milei’s administration run most soup kitchens, and their leaders claim that the decision to discontinue aid is an attack on them. “There is hunger and they are not delivering food!

The government reached a last-minute agreement in the Senate Wednesday night to obtain a final version of its flagship reform proposal known as Ley Bases as well as the fiscal package. Senators from the General Legislation, Budget and Finance, and Constitutional Issues commissions analyzed potential changes to the text approved by deputies. As night approached, LLA’s still hadn’t gathered the necessary signatures for the final version to be approved — half of the commission’s members plus one is the required number needed. According to Francos, an agreement was reached and both the Ley Bases and the fiscal package got the necessary backing for a session to be held. However, the final version, known as a dictamen, still hasn’t been formally approved.

The Human Capital Ministry won an appeal in federal court on Tuesday against a ruling that obligated the government to renew food deliveries to soup kitchens, which have largely been halted since December. The next day, prosecutors Andrés Nazer and María Paloma Ochoa gave a five-day deadline for the ministry to deliver the food to the registered soup kitchens and demanded precise information on the stash. Some media outlets reported that this implies the Human Capital Ministry is not required to hand over the food, but Grabois posted on X that this was not the case. They have 36 hours or they’ll be in contempt of court.”The Herald reached out to the Human Capital Ministry but did not receive an immediate response. As some soup kitchens are managed by people from social movements that oppose Milei’s administration, social leaders say the decision to discontinue the aid is an attack on them.

“Our first government milestone would be the outcome of the Ley Bases. It could go well, or it may not be approved,” Milei told LN+ news channel last Thursday. “After that milestone is reached, we will have to evaluate the results, and the entire cabinet will be under analysis. A potential government turnover could take place after that, and, if approved, Milei’s “May Pact” would become the law of the land as early as June. Despite the rumors and public statements, there are no certainties regarding how or when the cabinet reshuffle will be carried out, only that it will potentially happen after the Ley Bases is debated.
