Segob Presses Morena Deputies on Electoral Overhaul, Calls for Austerity

Rodríguez cast the push as the 4T's next step by urging strict discipline to protect the reform's credibility.

Overview

  • At Morena’s plenary in the Chamber of Deputies, Rosa Icela Rodríguez called the proposed electoral reform a “historical necessity” to leave the “old order” and build a “second floor” of transformation with free, transparent elections and no waste.
  • She warned lawmakers that “austerity is not a slogan” and urged them to reject luxury and despilfarro as a guiding principle of the movement.
  • Her message followed scrutiny of Morena figures over high-end purchases and travel, reinforcing a call for ethical conduct in line with the 4T’s principles.
  • Rodríguez praised President Claudia Sheinbaum as an honest, incorruptible leader heading a strong government and conveyed support for the administration’s agenda.
  • To underscore results, she reported assistance to about 86,000 repatriated Mexicans, 165,000 home visits in conflict-prone areas, and the voluntary surrender or destruction of more than 5,400 firearms and over 600 grenades.
