Morena Senators Receive Bulk Copies of AMLO’s ‘Grandeza’

Bulk deliveries coordinated by Adán Augusto López Hernández raised questions over payment with senators giving conflicting accounts.

Overview

  • Reports say offices received an average of 13 boxes per senator, with 20 books per box, for more than 260 copies each.
  • Using a 329‑peso retail price cited by Milenio, the shipment would exceed 78,960 pesos per senator, though the actual procurement price is not documented.
  • Milenio cites unnamed sources saying costs will be charged to senators’ prerogatives or the caucus budget, while 24 Horas found Senator Eugenio Segura claiming he bought 10 boxes at 600 pesos per book and Senator Manuel Huerta saying he did not pay for his 220 copies.
  • Boxes were already in the offices of Félix Salgado Macedonio, Aníbal Ostoa, Javier Corral, Raúl Morón, Rosario Esquer, Luisa Cortés and Simey Olvera, but it has not been confirmed that every Morena senator received them.
  • 24 Horas observed Planeta‑branded boxes and cards bearing Senate leader Adán Augusto López’s name, and some offices also had nine boxes of a book about President Claudia Sheinbaum.
