Sheinbaum Urges Open Debate on Shifting Mexico’s Mandate Revocation to 2027

She says aligning the vote with 2027 elections could save resources.

Overview

  • Deputies have proposed moving the constitutionally scheduled mandate revocation from 2028 to 2027 to coincide with other elections.
  • President Claudia Sheinbaum said the initiative should be analyzed and not approved hastily in the current ordinary session.
  • She described the timing change as a good proposal because it would avoid dedicating separate funding the following year.
  • If Congress cannot complete the process now, she recommended reviewing it and considering approval in the next legislative period.
  • She recalled that the mandate revocation mechanism was advanced by Andrés Manuel López Obrador and enshrined in the Constitution.
