Early life and education

[edit]

Estévez was born on 11 February 1978 in Buenos Aires, to a family of Galician immigrants who had originally settled in Corrientes.[1] She studied psychology at the Open University of Catalonia, graduating in 2008, and has a degree in Intra-family violence and Gender from Universidad Siglo XXI and a degree on social security from the International Social Security Association (ISSA).[2]

Political career

[edit]

Estévez was appointed advisor of the Executive Board of the Córdoba Women's Provincial Council in 2008, a position she held until 2010. From then, she was regional chief of the provincial branch of ANSES, from 2012 to 2015.[2] She is a member of La Cámpora.[3]

Estévez ran for a seat in the Argentine Chamber of Deputies in the 2015 general election; she was the first candidate in the Front for Victory list in Córdoba Province, ahead of Juan Manuel Pereyra.[4] The Front for Victory list received 18.10% of the votes, and both Estévez and Pereyra were elected.[5] She was sworn in on 10 December 2015.[6]

As a national deputy, Estévez was a vocal supporter of the legalization of abortion in Argentina. She voted in favor of the two Voluntary Interruption of Pregnancy bills that were debated by the Argentine Congress in 2018 and 2020.[7] She has also been a supporter of the expansion of LGBT rights, having authored and introduced the 2021 bill on travesti and trans labour quota, which was approved by Congress.[8]

Ahead of the 2021 primary elections, she was confirmed as the second Frente de Todos candidate to the Argentine Senate in Córdoba Province, behind Senator Carlos Caserio.[9]
