The Secretary of the Interior, Rosa Icela Rodríguez, met with the governor of Michoacán and 59 mayors of the entity to review issues that should have been addressed months ago when serious security alerts were issued for the state. The new mayor of Uruapan, Grecia Quiroz, stated how sad it was that attacks like those on Bernardo Bravo or Carlos Manzo had to occur for authorities to react. Protests planned for Morelia were suspended yesterday, but not in Uruapan, where farmers and merchants joined students who have occupied the streets for four consecutive days. The new mayor gave an emotional and strong speech in the Michoacán Congress. In the Mexican Senate, an incident occurred between Morena and PRI deputies, which also exposed an uncomfortable truth: women are still treated as an image, not as a voice. President Claudia Sheinbaum supported Fátima Bosch as an example of female empowerment. Meanwhile, the coordinator of Morena senators, Adán Augusto López, was caught again watching sports competitions on his tablet during debates.
