Economy
Dollarisation Keep the peso
Said
Argentina's two-currency economy leaves it without a currency of its own that also serves for savings and credit.
“En la Argentina se ha agudizado el carácter bimonetario de su economía y por lo tanto carecemos los argentinos de un instrumento vital para la economía, cualquiera sea su orientación, y que es tener una moneda que no solamente sirva para transacción sino también para reserva y ahorro y con ello generación de crédito, en fin.”
Our translation In Argentina the bimonetary character of its economy has deepened and therefore we Argentines lack an instrument vital to the economy, whatever its orientation, which is to have a currency that serves not only for transactions but also for reserve and savings and with that the generation of credit, in short.

Public spending Protect spending and the state
Said
A vote against Milei's government is a vote to end the permanent spending squeeze on the most vulnerable.
“El voto de cada uno de ustedes puede ponerle un límite al desgobierno de Milei para terminar con el ajuste permanente sobre los sectores más vulnerables de nuestra sociedad, con la entrega de la soberanía nacional y con el castigo a las personas que viven de su trabajo o a los que trabajaron toda su vida.”
Our translation The vote of each of you can put a limit on Milei's misgovernment to end the permanent adjustment on the most vulnerable sectors of our society, the handing over of national sovereignty and the punishment of people who live from their work or who worked their whole lives.

As a senator she announced her bloc would vote for the bill legalising voluntary termination of pregnancy.

Our translation Yes, Madam President: it is to state that, as our bloc announced on 28 June itself when the Chamber of Deputies passed the IVE [voluntary termination of pregnancy], we are going to support this half-sanction.

Argentina in the world
The United States Balanced, diverse partners
Said
Foreign powers should not decide who governs Argentina; she said this about US support for Milei before the 2025 election.
“Cuando los poderosos de afuera quieren decidir quién gobierna, la respuesta tiene que ser la misma que hace 80 años: la soberanía no se negocia.”
Our translation When the powerful from abroad want to decide who governs, the answer has to be the same as 80 years ago: sovereignty is not negotiable.
