Kenia López Rabadán Moves to Shift Judicial Cut to UNAM in Budget Talks

Committee review will determine whether the proposed reallocation advances.

Overview

  • She said she will submit a request with members from multiple parties to the dictamen commissions, giving priority to the Budget Committee, to transfer resources from the expected cut to the judiciary to UNAM.
  • López Rabadán framed the push as a response to recent violence on university grounds and called for decisions that center youth, arguing funding must back public statements.
  • She linked the initiative to long-standing demands for justice in the Ayotzinapa case, saying a new judiciary offers an opportunity to deliver accountability.
  • The proposal is tied to negotiations over the Paquete Económico and would require committee approval and broader legislative agreement before any funds are reassigned.
  • Coverage identifies her with conflicting institutional titles, reflecting a reporting discrepancy over whether she presides in the Chamber of Deputies or the Senate.
