The Minister of Social Development, Victoria Tolosa Paz, has decided to deregister one hundred thousand other holders of the Potenciar Trabajo program who have not validated their identity through the Mi Argentina platform or in the 56 reference centers across the country, local in the that could be transported in person.

From March, These people will not receive the salaries they received until now from the State. Of this total, 55,625 beneficiaries have already made a claim on the wallet website because they understand that they have been wrongfully separated from the plan. Thus, the former deputy defended the validation process to which 1,265,000 holders of social plans submitted in due time.

“Today we close the register and there will be one hundred thousand victims of Potenciar Trabajo and all this information goes to justice, to the legal case opened in the court of Ariel Lijo“, anticipated the official.

Tolosa Paz also acknowledged flaws in the implementation of the social program launched by Daniel Arroyothe Premier of Social Development who appointed Alberto Fernandez.

Tolosa Paz also lambasted again the piquetero leaders who last week blocked 150 accesses to the main capitals of the country. “(Eduardo) Belliboni -head of the Polo Obrero- and the Piquetera unit were very accustomed from 2015 to 2019 to bend the wrist of someone who sat in the Ministry of Social Development of the Nation -for Caroline Stanley-. I think what they don’t understand now is that not only the political decisions have changed, but fundamentally the decision to be able to reach the most vulnerable in Argentina with this money.

Consulted by GlobeLiveMedia about the decision taken by the former La Plata councilman, Belliboni said: “We will remove the tents and we will install them in front of the Ministry of Tolosa Paz if there is no response for the compulsive withdrawals they gave from this virtual system that left many people out of Empower Work. It is not a measure that we are carrying out only in the city of Buenos Aires, but, like last Wednesday, throughout the country”.

It is not the ministry of the piqueteros, it is the ministry of social development that must precisely create a public policy and a social policy for the most vulnerable sectors of Argentina“, Tolosa Paz replied that he had been in a difficult confrontation with the leaders of the left since he replaced Juan Zabaleta.

Regarding the marches and encampments scheduled for today, the Minister again questioned the attitude and “political use” of the Piquetera Unit due to the cuts in the streets: “It really makes me very sad to see that in Argentina where a sector of the Piquetero Unit than to do politics and position itself in an election year use the poorest, even against their own interests. The picket is not the counterpart of Reinforce Labor. Extortion is not the consideration of reinforcement work. Bringing four-year-olds, babies with their mothers to camp on July 9, is not consideration for reinforcement work.”

Finally, the minister, who yesterday went to the province of Salta with the governor Gustavo Saenz He again invited left-wing activists to collaborate in validating the data of people who, supposedly, should perform twenty hours of daily work in Management Units, such as cooperatives, which depend on social movements. “I continue to invite all of these efforts to mobilize, to pay for buses, to camp, to use chemical toilets and all that they are doing to try to do what came out of the previous government, that is, extortion, serve to get these people to validate their identity. There are 56 points nationwide to do it in person.”

In this sense, Tolosa Paz stressed that they will continue with this process of ordering to be certain “with firmness that we are doing good, not only the most important public policy of the ministry, but also the Argentina that we want to build. “Far from this photograph that Belliboni wants, which is extortion as a mechanism.”
