They sanction 13 public servants in nine agencies

President Claudia Sheinbaum visited Acapulco, Guerrero, to lead the delivery of cards from the Pensión Mujeres Bienestar program. This scheme grants 3,100 pesos every two months to Mexican women between 60 and 64 years old.

Support for women and new works

During the event, the president stressed that the benefit recognizes the care work that women have historically carried out. Currently, almost 70 thousand people of Guerrero receive support, of which around 18 thousand reside in the port.

“When women walk together, there is nothing that stops us, we are the center of the Transformation, we are the history and future of Mexico,” stated Sheinbaum.

In terms of infrastructure, the president announced the definitive cancellation of the La Parota Dam project due to its effects on communities. Instead, wells and high tanks will be built to guarantee the supply of drinking water. Rehabilitation work will also be carried out after hurricanes Otis and John.

Sheinbaum reiterated his administration’s commitment to women and the sustainable development of Guerrero, prioritizing solutions that do not harm the social or natural environment.

The Second Commission of the Permanent Congress approved an opinion that urges the Ministry of Public Education (SEP) and the educational authorities of the 32 entities to reinforce strategies for preventing bullying and school violence. The request is part of the “Safe School Environments” program.

According to the National Discrimination Survey (ENADIS) 2022, carried out by Inegi, Conapred and the CNDH, around 28.5% of people between 12 and 17 years old have experienced some form of harassment or mistreatment at their school. The National Educational System serves more than 34 million students in 258 thousand basic, upper secondary and higher education schools.

The “Safe School Environments” strategy promotes co-responsibility between authorities, families and school communities to prevent risks and promote a culture of peace. The opinion highlights that this mechanism articulates guidelines, protocols and actions to guarantee safe, healthy and inclusive spaces, without restricting fundamental rights.

The legislators considered it necessary to maintain permanent prevention and care actions. The exhortation seeks to ensure that educational centers are environments free of harassment, with full respect for human rights and the best interests of children.

President Claudia Sheinbaum visited Cuautla, Morelos, to announce a set of social and security measures. Among them, the construction of 10 new schools of the “Margarita Maza” National High School, house-to-house visits, more jobs through Young People Building the Future and a greater presence of the National Guard.

“We are going to build together, because this is a job for everyone, for families to care for their children, for the state government and for the federal government,” the president highlighted.

The visit occurred after the arrest of the mayor of Cuautla. Sheinbaum instructed strengthening the federal presence with attention to the causes, as part of the National Security Strategy. Next week they will begin house-to-house tours and outreach to merchants. He promised to return in three months to monitor progress.

Housing for Wellbeing

At the event, 128 Infonavit homes and 207 Insus deeds were also delivered. Sheinbaum recalled the four components of the program: build 1.8 million new houses for people with incomes of one to two minimum wages; deliver the same number of credits for improvement; grant a million deeds; and restructure unpayable loans for 5 million families.

Octavio Romero Oropeza, director of Infonavit, reported that of the goal of 1.2 million homes, there are already 440 approved complexes that total 514 thousand houses (43% progress). In Morelos, the goal is 13 thousand new homes with an investment of 8,150 million pesos.

Edna Elena Vega Rangel, head of Sedatu, explained that 128 homes and 207 deeds were delivered. Governor Margarita González Saravia thanked the expansion of the state goal to 24 thousand houses in the six-year term, in addition to other works such as modernization of the countryside, a Convention Center in Cuernavaca and the “Circuito Tierra y Libertad” highway program.

The beneficiary Kendra Ramírez Orozco expressed her gratitude for access to housing. Sheinbaum reiterated his commitment to return in three months to follow up.
