La sesión especial convocada por el jefe del bloque del PRO, Cristian Ritondo, para debatir el proyecto de "ficha limpia" fracasó nuevamente por falta de quórum. El proyecto busca impedir que personas con condenas en primera y segunda instancia se presenten a elecciones. La ausencia fue generalizada en casi todos los bloques políticos. La propuesta ha generado polémica y debate sobre la justicia y la elegibilidad política en Argentina.

00:00The pro has not obtained a quorum and again failed the session to discuss the clean sheet project.
00:08Let's remember that the special session had been requested by the head of the pro block, Cristian Ritondo,
00:15and the information says that there were absentees in almost all blocks.
00:21Yes, Libertad Avanza, Los Radicales, El Peronismo, of course, El Esperable.
00:27Yes.
00:27But it seems that they do not want to deal with this project.
00:30The clean sheet is that whoever has a double-duty conviction, first instance, second instance,
00:36as is the case, for example, of Cristina Kirchner, with the cause of violence,
00:42cannot apply for elections.
00:44But, well, apparently it does not have a quorum, as they usually say.
00:50Yes, yes, yes.
00:50Let's see, let's tell you that in this special session that was called for today at 10 am,
00:57the House of Representatives met again with the aim of advancing with the treatment of what Lucio told you.
01:02The clean sheet, that is, whoever arrives, arrives without conviction, to the honorable Congress.
01:10Let's see, what should be noted is that, if the initiative is approved,
01:14it would prevent people with convictions confirmed, in this case, for hunting,
01:19from applying to compete in the elections.
01:21Well, with that criterion, Carlos Menem would not have died being a senator, for example.
01:26Because Carlos Menem had a double-duty conviction.
01:30I think it was strictly because of the flight of Embalse Rio Tercero,
01:35or the arms trafficking to Croatia and Ecuador.
01:38Well, he had a double-duty conviction.
01:40What happens is that he later appealed before the court,
01:43or, as it is called, he was in extraordinary resource before the court,
01:46and the court, as always, did not decide anything.
01:49With that criterion, Carlos Menem would not have died being a senator for La Rioja.
01:54And with that criterion, if it is approved next year,
01:57Cristina Guillén could not be a candidate.
02:00Which, well, I don't know.
02:02The issue of justice is quite controversial.
02:06For example, Mauricio Macri assumed the presidency
02:09having an open cause for espionage of his family.
02:14And curiously, when he was re-elected as president,
02:17a week later, that cause, I don't remember if it was closed,
02:20Yes, yes, the case was closed.
02:22Or it did not advance.
02:24The issue is how far you extend a clean record.
02:27For example, a clean record, a second-degree conviction,
02:30is a good objective criterion.
02:32It means that someone was convicted in first and second degree.
02:35Or, for example, we could be a little more exquisite,
02:38more pedigree, and if there is a first-degree conviction, too.
02:42But what happens is that in that case,
02:44the Congress would be half-empty, right?
02:48Or at least the caste, as President Javier Milley likes to call it,
02:52the majority could not be elected.
02:54Well, but there is the news.
02:55There was no quorum.
02:56We recognize that last week,
02:58also the same deputies, led by Ritondo,
03:00arrived, they were at a vote, 128,
03:02they managed to meet, but there was no quorum.
03:04In this opportunity, I understand that there were fewer,
03:07so a clean record, for the moment, is not going to be treated.
03:10We reiterate, this is one of the news
03:12that has to do with the political page.
03:14The pro, in reality, has not gotten a quorum.
03:17And again, it failed the session
03:19to debate this project called Clean Record.
