President Claudia Sheinbaum has launched a package of policies for women, marked by the opening of the first Center for Freedom in Ciudad Juárez. At the event, she declared the start of a 'time of freedom and love' and introduced public initiatives, including a pension for women aged 60 to 64 and the Network of Weavers of the Fatherland. This move demonstrates that the administration's focus on women is not just symbolic but also operational.
Meanwhile, a political scandal is brewing with accusations against the current Governor of Chihuahua, Maru Campos, by the Attorney General's Office (FGR). The FGR alleges that former Governor César Duarte had her on a secret payroll, transferring 10 million pesos. These accusations appear to benefit the MORENA party as the 2027 gubernatorial elections approach.
Internal party dynamics are also shifting. Senator Andrea Chávez, part of Adán Augusto López's team, is already conducting an unofficial campaign for candidacy. In response, the coordinator of MORENA's political operations in the Chamber of Deputies, Pedro Haces, quickly distanced himself from the recent capture of a suspected criminal linked to the Sinaloa cartel.
Concurrently, the party's vice-coordinator, Gabriela Jiménez, organized an exclusive 'posada' for a select few, indicating a strategy to consolidate power within the party. These maneuvers signal an active preparation for future elections and a fight for influence.
