Overview
- Silvia Lospennato said on Saturday that PRO members are enthusiastic about Mauricio Macri as a possible 2027 candidate but confirmed the party has not declared anyone for the race.
- Macri is driving a national relaunch called 'Próximo Paso,' touring provinces and speaking at large events to reassert PRO’s identity and mobilize local leaders.
- The relaunch staged a major meeting and speech at Parque Norte and a May 28 gathering of provincial PRO legislators in Buenos Aires to set organizational lineaments and coordinate activity.
- Party leaders publicly back a vocal, independent PRO that will speak out when it must but will avoid actions intended to actively harm President Javier Milei’s administration.
- PRO, the center-right party Macri helped found, is using the relaunch to rebuild territorial networks and a legislative base so it can re-enter national contention in 2027.
