Overview
- Ivonne Ortega submitted a point of agreement in the Chamber of Deputies urging the Senate to declare the disappearance of powers in Michoacán.
- Her filing cites recent assassinations of sitting local officials and attacks on businesspeople as evidence of ingovernability under criminal control.
- The document highlights extortion in Tierra Caliente and names La Familia Michoacana and the Caballeros Templarios as groups influencing prices and commerce.
- It invokes Article 76, which allows the Senate to declare disappearance of powers, appoint by two‑thirds an interim state executive from a presidential shortlist, and bar that appointee from running in the subsequent election, with the Permanent Commission empowered during recess.
- The proposal alleges seven municipal presidents have been killed during Governor Alfredo Ramírez Bedolla’s term and says another abducted mayor remains missing, while noting the Senate has not yet acted on the exhortation.
