Overview

• After a weeks-long pause, Claudia Sheinbaum met at Palacio Nacional with Adán Augusto López and Ricardo Monreal to align plans for the Sept. 1 congressional session.
• Monreal said the president expressed respect for López and ratified his role leading Morena in the Senate, and he ruled out leadership changes.
• Roughly 30 legislative items were reviewed, including electoral reform, which will move through forums and hearings run by a presidential working group before reaching Congress.
• Monreal said no “preferente” initiatives will be sent on Sept. 1, though Morena plans to prioritize the president’s agenda once the period opens.
• The case of Hernán Bermúdez Requena, a fugitive investigated for alleged ties to La Barredora, was not discussed; López made no statements and Ignacio Mier denied he would replace him.
