The Chamber of Deputies rejected the electoral reform pushed by President Claudia Sheinbaum, after the ruling bloc failed to reach a qualified majority. PT, PVEM, and the opposition voted against; Rubén Moreira stated that the initiative was built without considering all political forces, and Ricardo Monreal announced that Morena will work on a plan B. In the legislative arena, the Senate unanimously approved the cap on public servants' pensions so that none exceeds the salary of the Presidency.
