Statements by Reginaldo Sandoval

The coordinator of the Labor Party (PT) in the Chamber of Deputies, Reginaldo Sandoval, stated that it is not necessary to create a new cause for electoral annulment linked to financing of organized crime. Consider that current legislation already includes sufficient tools.

“I think it doesn’t matter, because it is in the law that private financing cannot be received and you have to walk at the top of the campaign,” said the legislator.

According to Sandoval, an election can be annulled when an overspending of more than a five percent difference in results is demonstrated.

Current legal framework

The deputy stressed that the electoral regulations establish clear sanctions against excesses in campaign expenses or receipt of improper private financing. Therefore, it rules out the need to incorporate specific provisions against illicit resources.

Sandoval remains firm that the current law gives the authorities the mechanisms to guarantee transparency and legality in the elections. Adding new causes, he added, could complicate the regulatory framework.

Assembly decision

The National Coordinator of Education Workers (CNTE) is moving towards the end of its current day of struggle. Section 22 of Oaxaca agreed to withdraw its bases from the sit-in in the Historic Center of Mexico City and return to the entity to reorganize actions.

The state assembly of Oaxacan teachers made this decision after analyzing the results of the negotiations with the federal government. The largest contingent of the CNTE arrived at the National Representative Assembly (ANR) with the position of withdrawing the movement. The ANR started at 9:00 p.m. this Friday.

In the afternoon, work began to dismantle tents, tarps and structures in the streets surrounding the Zócalo. Hundreds of teachers were preparing to return to their states.

Political and organizational route

The ANR will formalize the decision on the recess of the national strike and will define the political and organizational route for the coming weeks. Leaders reiterated that government responses have been insufficient, especially in pensions and repeal of the ISSSTE Law of 2007. The wear and tear of the mobilization and the lack of new agreements led the bases to support a tactical withdrawal.

If the agreement is ratified, the lifting of the sit-in will put an end to almost three weeks of protests, blockades and mobilizations. The CNTE maintains its demands and will continue the fight through other means.

Recommendations to avoid deception

The Federal Consumer Prosecutor’s Office (Profeco) asked buyers to compare prices before purchasing gifts for Father’s Day. The goal is to avoid impulse purchases and confirm that the promotions are authentic.

The agency suggested using technological tools that consult the price history of products. This way, possible simulations of discounts can be detected, both in physical stores and on digital platforms.

Among the options are CamelCamelCamel, Keepa, Consumer Reports and Honey. These platforms allow you to review cost variations, compare products, receive alerts and find better purchasing opportunities.

Offers that are not

Profeco warned that some businesses increase prices before announcing supposed discounts. That is why he recommended reviewing the historical behavior of the articles to avoid falling into deception.

It is essential that consumers make decisions based on real data. This avoids commercial traps and protects the family economy.
