President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner.
President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner unexpectedly summoned business leaders and unions to a ceremony at the Government House in which she is expected to announce an increase in the universal child allowance.
Rumours suggest she could also announce other benefits for employees such as waiving the income tax on the June salary bonus, as it happened in late 2012.
The rally, which is scheduled to take place at 6:30 PM in the Women’s Hall, will incluye Business leaders and members of the two most administration-friendly unions: Antonio Caló’s CGT and Hugo Yasky’s CTA.
The announcement comes as a surprise since the President was not expected to appear in public at the Government House for the rest of the week due to the massive stage that has been set up across the entrance, in preparations for the 10th anniversary of the Kirchnerite age this May 25th.
