History
Foundation
The Piquetero Party was established in 2016 by Juan Marino, who had been a member of the Workers' Party and founder of the Revolutionary Piquetero Tendency (TPR). [1] After his expulsion from the Workers' Party in 2009, he founded the Revolutionary Piquetero Tendency (TPR) in 2010. The TPR became the basis for the creation of the Piquetero Party in 2016.
Development
Since its creation, the Piquetero Party has actively participated in social mobilizations and has been part of various electoral coalitions. In 2017, it was part of the Popular Meeting for Land, Roof and Work. [2]
In 2019, the party joined the Frente de Todos, and although it did not win seats in that election, its leader Juan Marino assumed a position in the Argentine Chamber of Deputies in 2022, replacing Sergio Massa. [3]
Ideology
The Piquetero Party promotes policies of social inclusion and economic justice. One of his outstanding proposals is the implementation of a universal basic salary.[4]
Electoral History
In 2017, the Piquetero Party participated in the legislative elections as part of the Encuentro Popular por Tierra, Techo y Trabajo coalition. However, it failed to obtain representation.
In 2019, the party joined the Frente de Todos and Juan Marino was included in the list of candidates, although he was not initially elected. Marino assumed a seat in the Chamber of Deputies in 2022 after the resignation of Sergio Massa. [5]
In 2023, the Piquetero Party was part of the Union for the Homeland coalition and Juan Marino managed to obtain a seat in the Chamber of Deputies, occupying the 15th place on the list.[6]
