Argentina's Lower House voted on September 17 to overturn President Javier Milei's veto of a bill to increase public university funding.
While the veto is expected to be fully overturned on October 2 following a vote in the Senate, university faculty and advocates are already celebrating a rare win against Milei's cost-cutting machine, which has taken a particular aim at higher education, pensions, social welfare programs, and other spending his government has deemed undesirable.
