Overview

  • After weeks without in‑person talks, Sheinbaum met at Palacio Nacional on Aug. 18 with Senate coordinator Adán Augusto López and Chamber leader Ricardo Monreal.
  • Monreal said the president showed respect that he interpreted as ratifying López’s leadership in the Senate, and he ruled out changes to Morena’s legislative coordinations.
  • Ignacio Mier, vicecoordinator in the Senate, attended and stated he will not become the new coordinator; Interior Secretary Rosa Icela Rodríguez was also present.
  • Monreal reported the group reviewed roughly 30 legislative items for the Sept. 1 session, including electoral reform that will proceed to forums before a formal initiative.
  • Sheinbaum confirmed the meeting did not address the arrest‑warrant case of Hernán Bermúdez Requena, which she said remains under prosecutorial handling in Tabasco; López left without comment.
