# Milei convenes governors for the May Pact at Tucumán

Date: 2024

## The fact

On 9 July 2024 President Milei hosted a May Pact signing with most governors in Tucumán on fiscal and reform commitments.

## Context

Some Peronist governors stayed away. Neighbouring Ley Bases is days earlier. He did not write every provincial budget.

Ley Bases late June is neighbouring. Midterms 2025 are later.

The President of Argentina heads the federal executive, issues decrees of necessity and urgency subject to congressional review, and appoints the cabinet. He does not write INDEC prints, an IMF board decision, a [US Treasury](/organizations/us-treasury) backstop, or a Central Bank balance sheet by himself. Congress, governors, the BCRA, and coalition deputies share specific files. Dollarisation announced is not dollarisation completed.

## Evidence and sources

Casa Rosada carries the official instrument or communique. Reuters records the same dated act independently.

## Significance

The path is [social cohesion](/drivers/social-cohesion) and fiscal: a completed governors’ compact is a dated coalition instrument, remaining absences named.

## What is established and what is not

Established: 9 July 2024 Tucumán compact, independently reported.

Not established: that every province implemented every clause, or a unique later deficit coefficient from that Tuesday.

What would change the picture: a contradictory original with a different date or name, a later repeal, a court that vacated the instrument, or a measured series that can be argued, with lag and alternatives, as a consequence of this instrument rather than of later institutions.

The date is the date of this instrument, not a licence to back-date every later harm or benefit.

Most governors signed. Four Peronist leaders were excluded or stayed away. Congress still had to write statutes.. A later repeal, court stay, or successor order would be a different Fact with a different date. That pair identifies Milei convenes governors for the May Pact at Tucumán, not a later speech about Milei convenes governors for the May Pact at Tucumán.

Co-authors and later implementers named in Context remain on the file. Milei convenes governors for the May Pact at Tucumán on 2024-07-09 is not a licence to treat every later Casa Rosada communique as this same act. If a later repeal, stay, or successor instrument exists, it needs its own date and its own row. This dossier refuses to average Milei convenes governors for the May Pact at Tucumán into a personality. The contribution described on this Person row is limited to He convened. Most governors signed. Four Peronist leaders were excluded or stayed away. Congress still had to write statutes. That limit is the alternative to treating office-holding as authorship of every later series.
