Overview
- The Interior Ministry and the Presidential legal counsel received representatives of retirees from CFE, Pemex, Banobras and Luz y Fuerza to hear complaints about the pension reform.
- Retirees are asking for a suspension of enforcement, saying cuts have already been applied to pensions and that rules to implement the constitutional change must be issued first.
- Organizers say roughly 90,000 pensioners have been affected and they are collecting signatures aimed at securing legislative review of retroactive reductions.
- Congress approved a constitutional cap in March that ties top public pensions to about half the president’s salary, roughly 70,000 pesos per month, while secondary laws to regulate implementation remain pending.
- The dispute could force lawmakers to act or delay enforcement, and it directly affects long‑serving workers and families who say cuts would lower already established retirement incomes.
