Mexico City Congress Unanimously Appoints Nashieli Ramírez as Comptroller General

The six-year mandate opens with a pending proposal to place the city’s transparency agency under her office.

Overview

  • Ramírez took the oath after a unanimous vote of the Mexico City Congress and will serve a single, nonrenewable term from October 2025 to October 2031.
  • Her selection arose from a three-person shortlist sent by Head of Government Clara Brugada, with committees ranking her first for a six-point plan focused on lawful, efficient spending and citizen participation.
  • She resigned as president of the Mexico City Human Rights Commission, which is now led on an interim basis by first visitador Iván García Garate.
  • Opposition legislators called for strict independence and warned against political use of the office, and Ramírez pledged to pursue corruption and impunity without partisan bias.
  • Morena lawmakers indicated a forthcoming initiative to fold Info CDMX into the Comptroller’s structure, with a bill expected in the coming weeks that would reshape the city’s transparency framework.
