Political career

Vilar began her political activism in La Cámpora, one of the youth wings of the Front for Victory. In 2015, she was elected to the City Council of Lomas de Zamora on the Front for Victory ticket.[4] She ran for a seat in the Argentine Chamber of Deputies in the 2019 legislative election; she was the 12th candidate in the Frente de Todos list in Buenos Aires Province. The list received 51.64% of the vote, and Vilar was elected.[5]

As a national deputy, Vilar formed part of the parliamentary commissions on the Modernization of Parliamentary Procedure (which she presides), Natural Resources and Environmental Conservation, Cooperative Affairs, Municipal Affairs, Sports, General Legislation, Petitions, Powers and Norms, and Foreign Affairs.[6] She was a supporter of the 2020 Voluntary Interruption of Pregnancy bill, which legalized abortion in Argentina.[7]

On 9 December 2021, Buenos Aires governor Axel Kicillof appointed her as the province's new Minister of the Environment (a new portfolio) due to her active participation in environmental policy. Her vacancy in the Chamber of Deputies was filled by Natalia Zaracho.[9]
