Overview
- The government is applying Decree 931/2025 to replicate public‑employee collective bargaining raises from 2024–2025, producing about a 123% cumulative increase between January and June 2026.
- More than 1,000 senior officials qualify, from the chief of cabinet and ministers to secretaries, subsecretaries and agency heads.
- Payroll sheets cited in the reporting show ministers’ gross pay rising in steps to roughly ARS 8,019,338 in May, to be paid in early June.
- The measure excludes President Javier Milei and Vice President Victoria Villarruel, whose gross pay remains at about ARS 4,066,018 and ARS 3,764,821.
- The decree includes an automatic freeze that halts further raises if official data show a cumulative financial fiscal deficit.
