Tucumán
Gerónimo Vargas Aignasse and Carlos Gallia are sponsoring a bill that would restrict use of the provincial payroll-deduction system. The proposal caps deductions and sets an interest benchmark, but remains in committee and does not regulate loans collected outside payroll.
Misiones
The Ministry of Industry will accompany the selected SMEs to a business round on 26 of August in La Rural. The mission will offer meetings with buyers and operators from the sector, but their participation does not guarantee contracts, new clients, or sales until the negotiations produce concrete agreements.

The head of the Fuerza Patria bloc in the Buenos Aires Senate introduced a system to protect the income of indebted public employees. The proposal sets a ceiling on deductions, creates early warnings and provides for penalties, but still faces legislative debate.

The Five-Year Plan 2026-2030 prioritizes copper and lithium, with 566.180 hectares under prospecting and 64.681 in initial exploration.
