Overview
- Michoacán’s Congress unanimously swore in Grecia Itzel Quiroz García as Uruapan’s substitute mayor to complete the 2024–2027 term, and she pledged to continue Carlos Manzo’s agenda.
- Quiroz traveled to and from the legislature and back to Uruapan in an armored vehicle escorted by National Guard and Army units, reflecting a reinforced federal security presence.
- Interior Secretary Rosa Icela Rodríguez opened multi‑day dialogues with Governor Alfredo Ramírez Bedolla and municipal presidents, meeting 59 mayors on day one and 25 more the next day, with further sessions promised.
- The emerging Plan Michoacán centers on security and justice, economic development with equity, and education and culture for peace, with proposals to boost federal deployments and create a specialized high‑impact crimes prosecutor’s office.
- Authorities publicly vowed justice with no impunity in Manzo’s case as demonstrations continued across the state, including a condemned fire at the Apatzingán municipal palace during a protest.
