Overview
- President Claudia Sheinbaum gave her Second Informe from the Patio de Honor at Palacio Nacional on Tuesday and the speech was carried live on public TV and official digital channels.
- The government presented figures it says show a 51% fall in average daily intentional homicides from September 2024 to July 2026 and described July 2026 as the lowest month for that measure since 2015.
- Economic data highlighted by the administration included $34,968 million in foreign direct investment in the first half of 2026, 1.4% GDP growth in the second quarter, and a record 60 million people employed.
- Rosa Icela Rodríguez, the secretary of the interior, will formally deliver the written report to Congress at San Lázaro, continuing the recent practice of the president not attending the legislative handover in person.
- Sheinbaum begins a multi‑week regional tour on September 3 to present state‑level reports and will close with a Mexico City‑focused event at the Zócalo, a move intended to bring the national report to local audiences.
