    Macri in the threshold of a major political storm over a possible veto of a labor bill

     The veto of the bill is expected to be announced by Macri on Friday morning at a poultry complex which has received government support to ensure jobs.

    Argentine president Mauricio Macri is expected to veto a controversial labor bill which was approved early Thursday after a marathon session in the Lower House of Congress. The bill passed with 147 votes in favor, 3 votes against it and 88 abstentions includes the declaration of the employment emergency during 180 days and a double compensation in the event of layoffs, for a period of six months.
