In this paper we analyze the political connotations of the debate on deputies' allowances that took place in the Constituent General Congress of the United Provinces of the Río de la Plata in mid-1825. We do so under the assumption that this debate not only accounted for the process of professionalization of politics through the definition of the position of the legislator. It also made visible the fiscal and financial constraints of the provinces to ensure their representation in Congress, as well as their reluctance to contribute to the configuration of national revenue that would support it. We also verified that, for this very reason, such debate highlighted the growing opposition between the two political views that were beginning to be more clearly defined in Congress, their strategies, and internal contradictions with the aim of reaching an agreement on a system for organizing a center of unity
