BUENOS AIRES, Feb 27 - Argentina’s Senate voted on Friday to approve a labor reform bill backed by President Javier Milei, giving it final clearance to become law and delivering a win the government says will strengthen investor confidence.

Milei’s administration argues the reform, which passed with 42 votes in favor, 28 against, and two abstentions, will spur investment and create formal jobs, while labor unions contend it weakens worker protections, including the right to strike.
