The National Workers' Housing Fund Institute (Infonavit) announced that, despite the criticisms received, the new law aims to eradicate corruption and not affect the savings of workers. For decades, Infonavit was led by three directions that endorsed private financing for the construction of housing, which resulted in debts, defaults, and poor conditions in many of them. According to Infonavit, in recent years, 143,000 housing units were authorized, of which only 35,000 were built.
In response to the criticisms from National Action, Infonavit affirmed that the positions questioning government financing of the real estate sector are unfounded. On the other hand, the president of the State Executive Committee of Morena in Querétaro reported systematic acts of violence against party members, such as the harassment encountered by the municipal president of Cadereyta, Astrid Ortega. She also referred to the labor conflict in that municipality, attributing it to debts inherited from previous administrations.
In this regard, specific cases were mentioned, such as the accusations against councilor Fernando Flores and federal deputy Gilberto Herrera Ruiz. Morena Querétaro highlighted that the new Infonavit law seeks to end structural corruption and allow the Institute to build housing on a nonprofit basis. The organization secretary of Morena in Querétaro celebrated the law's approval, emphasizing the support received in both chambers of the Congress of the Union.
