Solidarity and Equality (Spanish:Solidaridad e Igualdad - SI, or simply SI) is acentre-leftArgentinepolitical party, founded in 2008 as a splinter fromARI.
As part of building a broader coalition ahead of the 2007 elections, the ARI leaderElisa Carrió reached out to centrist figures such asPatricia Bullrich andMaría Eugenia Estenssoro, who was elected Senator for Buenos Aires. This proved controversial in ARI ranks and several national legislators formed a separate block called the Autonomous ARI in Congress.
In May 2008, the block, led byEduardo Macaluse, announced that they were forming a new party, Sí. The other legislators joining Sí wereCarlos Raimundi,Leonardo Gorbacz,Delia Bisutti,Nelida Belous,Verónica Venas,Emilio García Méndez,Lidia Naim andMaría América González.[1] Senator María Rosa Díaz also appeared at the launch of Sí.[2] The grouping has formed a congressional block with the dissident ARI members fromTierra del Fuego.
