The study’s starting point is that, in addition to fulfilling a legislative role, national legislators serve as territorial representatives. Legislators’ interventions at committee meetings are analyzed and classified, considering whether and how they mention the district represented. The results suggest that, during the pandemic, Congress not only fulfilled its role of controlling the executive, but it also served as an informational transmission channel to the national executive on the heterogeneous territorial dimension of the problems caused by the pandemic, in different areas of public policy. El artículo analiza las reuniones de comisión informativas de la Cámara de Diputados en Argentina en 2020, donde participaron diferentes funcionarios nacionales, con el objetivo de informar sobre las políticas implementadas en el contexto de la pandemia del COVID-19. Nuestro punto de partida es que, además de cumplir un rol legislativo, los legisladores nacionales ofician como representantes territoriales. Se analizan y clasifican las intervenciones de los diputados en las reuniones de comisión, teniendo en cuenta si mencionan al distrito representado y de qué manera. Como resultado, el trabajo plantea que, durante la pandemia, el Congreso no solo cumplió su rol de controlar al ejecutivo, sino que también ofició como canal de transmisión de información al poder ejecutivo nacional sobre la heterogeneidad territorial de las problemáticas ocasionadas por la pandemia, en diferentes ámbitos de política pública.
