Sheinbaum Marks First Year With Reform Push and Expanded Social Support

A national address in Mexico City's Zócalo on October 5 will set priorities for the next five years.

Overview

  • Marking the October 1 anniversary, the government cast year one as a systemic overhaul spanning a judicial reform, greater cabinet gender parity and recognition of Indigenous rights, with progress reported through state-level first reports in all 32 entities.
  • The administration reports wider social coverage, including Pensión Mujeres Bienestar for 1,048,000 beneficiaries and Benito Juárez scholarships for 4.6 million upper‑secondary students in public schools.
  • Health delivery is a central claim, with more than 31 hospitals and 12 health centers inaugurated across IMSS, ISSSTE and IMSS‑Bienestar during the first year.
  • Approval reached 71.6% in Consulta Mitofsky tracking, up from 61.5% at the start of the term, a rise officials link to territorial governance and program delivery.
  • In Sonora, Governor Alfonso Durazo highlighted federally backed projects including the University of the Yaqui People, a new IMSS‑Bienestar rural hospital funded at 502 million pesos, and the 67‑kilometer BavispeNuevo Casas Grandes highway with investment exceeding 1,800 million pesos.
