Electoral reform with a focus on equality
When questioned about the upcoming electoral reform, Laura Itzel Castillo Juárez pointed out that this process must incorporate a feminist approach, aimed at guaranteeing the full participation of women in the country's political life. She indicated that any definition in this regard must wait for the formal presentation of the project, since, in the absence of a concrete document, the current scenarios can only be considered preliminary.
Consensuses, political spending, and democracy
The senator also referred to one of the issues that will be considered in the analysis of the electoral reform: the reduction of political parties' spending during electoral processes, attending to the feeling of the population. However, she specified that without legislative consensus, it will not be possible to advance in this project. In this framework, she highlighted that democracy must be understood as the exercise of power in favor of citizenship, a principle that must be reflected in any modification to the electoral framework.
