Argentina's government has filed an extraordinary federal appeal with the Supreme Court seeking to avoid complying with the University Funding Law (27.795), which requires it to update faculty salaries and restore transfers to public universities that have fallen 45.6% in real terms since 2023. The Executive warned that compliance would consume over 90% of available primary spending credits — costing an estimated 2.5 trillion pesos — and could force the suspension of federal policing, prison food supplies, and the closure of federal courts. The government also requested that three of the court's justices recuse themselves for being university professors, though legal experts and officials alike acknowledge the Supreme Court is unlikely to accept the case, as it concerns a precautionary injunction rather than a final ruling.
