Campeche and Tabasco will register the worst GDP in the country in 2026

They demand actions for the disappearance of CFE employees

PACHUCA, Hgo.— Relatives and colleagues of two workers from the Federal Electricity Commission (CFE) demand that the authorities locate them. Adolfo López Saldaña, 40, and Marco Antonio Sarmiento García, 60, were last seen on February 26 in the municipality of Acaxochitlán, Hidalgo.

They were going to carry out work in Huauchinango, Puebla. During the transfer all contact was lost. Given this, his relatives went to the representation of the Attorney General’s Office of the State of Hidalgo (PGJEH) in Tulancingo to report the alleged forced disappearance.

They initially filed the complaint with the Attorney General’s Office (FGR), but they claim that they did not receive timely attention, so they turned to the state authorities. After that, search cards were issued. The last registration of the van in which they were traveling was in Acaxochitlán. Later, the unit was found without license plates and without the CFE logos.

His whereabouts are unknown at this time. Yesterday, Saturday, relatives held a demonstration to demand immediate action.

The CFE issued a statement:

“We have a commitment to our workers: we will fully monitor this event, endorsing our responsibility with the integrity of those who make up and are the driving force of the Federal Electricity Commission.”

The company indicated that it collaborates with the authorities and maintains communication with the families. The investigation folder was registered with the number FED/HGO/TULB/00002547/2026 for the crime of forced disappearance. Central offices also requested information for follow-up.

Housing for Wellbeing and its economic impact

From Tuxtla Gutiérrez, Chiapas, President Claudia Sheinbaum highlighted that the Housing for Wellbeing program contributes about 1 percent to the national Gross Domestic Product (GDP). This, thanks to the jobs it generates in construction and related sectors.

“There is nothing happier that can make the President and her entire team than to see the joy on their faces for receiving a home today,” said Sheinbaum during the delivery of 48 homes in the Infonavit Lacantún development.

In addition, 401 settlement certificates from Fovissste and 503 deeds from Insus were delivered. The president stated that the program will benefit nearly 30 million people during her six-year term.

“Thanks to the Housing for Wellbeing program, it is contributing close to 1 percent of GDP to the country’s economic growth. And if we consider that each home employs at least 4 people, a very important number of jobs are being generated,” he pointed out.

Investment in Chiapas

The Secretary of Agrarian, Territorial and Urban Development, Edna Elena Vega Rangel, explained that in Chiapas 42 billion pesos are allocated to build 70 thousand new homes in the six-year period. Of these, 50 percent are already hired.

The general director of Infonavit, Octavio Romero Oropeza, reported that at the national level there are 420 housing complexes in 31 states, with 475 thousand homes. Of them, 190 thousand are already under construction, and 3,600 have been delivered. In Chiapas, Infonavit contemplates 34 thousand homes with an investment of more than 20 billion pesos.

Governor Eduardo Ramírez Aguilar thanked the President for the homes delivered, while the beneficiary Miguel Ángel Ramírez Trujillo expressed his gratitude for the future it represents for his family.

Mobile line registration: 85% will be linked before cuts

The Telecommunications Regulatory Commission (CRT) expects that between 120 and 130 million cell phones will be registered, which represents about 85% of the total active lines in the country.

Currently there are 144.6 million lines. Ricardo Castañeda Álvarez, general director of Regulatory Policy of the CRT, estimated that between 14 and 24 million will not be registered and will be deregistered as the process progresses.

The suspension process will begin on August 15. Lines ending in 0 will be deactivated first and then in stages until the end of the year, with the aim of avoiding technical saturations.

Castañeda explained that the extension was due to the risk that millions of users would not meet the original deadline, which would have generated operational complications similar to massive saturations in emergencies. He ruled out a new extension of the deadline.

He assured that the registry does not violate privacy because the information is managed by the operators. The main objective is to combat crimes such as extortion, fraud and virtual kidnappings.
