Radical deputies of the United Provinces asked the National Committee and Martín Menem to remove the party seal from the UCR bloc

Five legislators from the Provincias Unidas bloc in the Chamber of Deputies sent letters to Leonel Chiarella, head of the National Committee of their party, and to Martín Menem, president of the Lower House, requesting that the UCR seal be removed from the bloc led by Pamela Verasay. The lawmakers argue that the bloc’s actions contradict the historical principles of the Radical movement, including its Organic Charter and decisions made by party leadership. They specifically criticized Verasay’s bloc for blocking a session aimed at questioning Manuel Adorni over alleged illicit enrichment and for voting against certain budgetary measures despite party mandates. The group also called for a review of the bloc’s use of the 'Unión Cívica Radical' designation, claiming that other affiliated members feel misrepresented by the bloc’s positions. The response from the Lower House indicated that such measures were beyond the President’s authority, suggesting the issue should be resolved internally.
